Apps/AppDev Certification

To become a BigID certified developer, you need to create an application showing your knowledge. There are no specific programming language requirements for this application, just like within BigID. We will not judge your code on syntax or style. We’ve designed this project to be flexible enough to focus on your specific domain while also being rigorous enough to verify your knowledge to BigID customers around the world.

Grading

The project consists of requirements and optional exercises. Your application MUST implement all requirements. Not implementing a single requirement will result in a failing score. After implementing all requirements, you may choose between optional exercises to get yourself to 5 points. You do not need to implement all requirements from one exercise. Any activity that generates points will count.

Requirements

• Your application must be packaged as a .tar docker image file.
• Your application must respond to port 3000 over HTTP.
• Your application must have a valid Manifest file and serve that file at /manifest.
• Your application manifest must have a name and a description.
• Your application may not rely on any external servers beyond those specified in this document.
