Redcruiter

Is an small singlepoint entry application framework written in PHP, relying on Smarty as template engine. With the main purpose to see if an candidate have an basic understanding of OOP PHP and patterns such as MVC. The framework in its current state makes use of an file-based JSON data-store to ensure flexibility in creation of candidate tests.

Todo

Your job is to write an simple address book application based around the framework.

There should exist an view where the user are able to display all existing contacts, and the properties first_name last_name, email, of these existing contacts.

The name of the Contact should exist as an link that when clicked transfers the user to an new view with more details about the contact.

There Should exist an link on each of the contacts that enables the user to be tranfered to the new view where the user should be able to edit the contact

The non editable view should display all information we know about the Contact such as first_name, last_name email, age, street, postal_code and city.

The editable view should enable the user to edit all information we know about the contact such as first_name, last_name, email, age, street, postal_code and city.

The user must be able to save the edited contacts information to the database.

When the information have been saved the user should be transferred to the detail the view that displays all details about the contact.

There should exist an method for the user to create and add new Contacts to the address book.

Diclaimer

This framework does not represent the best of architecture and it does contain flaws, extra points will be awarded for explaning what is an flaw, and why when you react on fixing things within the core of framework. Strong recommendation: Even if its ok, it would be a really bad idea that for any reason use this for anything you care about, without first fixing the flaws of this framework and applying for an new job.
