Klipfolio Work

In my second CO-OP term, working at Klipfolio, I got to see how my work actually made a difference in a live product. I got to work on add-ons and bugs which would improve the customers experience when using Klipfolio’s SAAS application offered on the web and now through mobile.

I was hired simply as a Software Developer and would work on bugs and features assigned to me at somewhat of a junior/intermediate level.

Klipfolio’s application stack at the time had me working with:

  • Grails and Groovy (Java based – Similar to Rails and Ruby/MVC)
  • jQuery
  • HTML
  • CSS/LESS
  • Mocha JS (Unit tests)

I also worked heavily with the following software:

  • YouTrack
  • Git
  • GitLab
  • Slack
  • IntelliJ IDE

Working on these bugs and features, I learnt that clean and reusable code was key in a big software project. I would keep some of these solutions and functions stored in function pages to be reused.

Bugs and Features I worked on include the following:

FEATURE – QuickBooks API connector

quickbooks

quickbooks-process

FEATURE – Buffer API connector (NO PIC)

BUG – Loading stop + Delay on My Klips loading

spinner-change-issue

BUG – Tour Re-Opening on some logins

full-screen-toggle-tour-overlay-fix

FEATURE – Form Validation

form-validation

BUG – Wrong Expiration dates in email

expire-email-change

BUG – Deleting Partner Companies:

delete-company-partner

Klipfolio still has that startup feel and offers a comfortable Agile environment to learn from other developers.

I would recommend any developer to work there and even customers with a constant need to view important data to use their product.
