Developed the initial DraftService for the HappyHeadlines repository, establishing the core architecture for draft management within a .NET and ASP.NET Core backend. Focused on building a maintainable and extensible API, the work included setting up in-memory storage to support rapid MVP iteration, as well as defining foundational models, DTOs, and repository and service interfaces. Implemented API endpoints for creating and retrieving drafts, laying the groundwork for future feature expansion. All engineering efforts centered on backend development using C# and XML, with an emphasis on clean project structure and scalable code to support ongoing enhancements and maintainability of the service.
