wtf is hiring-test?

This repository contains a take-home coding assignment for a frontend developer role at a company called EmbedAI. The task is to build a web application that looks and feels like Character.AI, a platform where people can chat with AI-powered personas. It's essentially a skills test: the company wants to see how well a candidate can recreate an existing app's look and user experience. The assignment asks candidates to build the project using React or Next.js, which are popular tools for building interactive websites. The focus is entirely on the visual interface, meaning candidates don't need to build the actual AI brain or server behind it. Instead, they can use placeholder text to simulate how the app would behave. The finished project needs to include a homepage, a screen for creating a new character, and a chat interface. It also needs to look good on both desktop and mobile screens, and include standard website elements like a navigation bar. This repo is intended for job applicants applying to EmbedAI. For example, if you are a frontend developer applying for this role, you would use these instructions to build your submission. The company wants to evaluate how cleanly you write code, how well you can match a visual design, and whether you can deliver a working, mobile-friendly prototype. They also explicitly allow the use of ChatGPT to help write the code, reflecting a modern approach to development where leveraging AI tools is part of the workflow. Beyond the core requirements, candidates can earn bonus points for creating extra screens or providing a Figma design file. Figma is a design tool used to map out a website's look before coding. The project serves as a straightforward, practical test of a developer's ability to turn a visual concept into a functional, well-structured web interface.
