  1. 1
    Create Test page at navbar in admin part , (make sure it is visible in the website , BOTH FRONTEND+BACKEND)
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleLive UI change: relevant CSS/HTML template kholo — color, margin, flex, bootstrap class. Save + hard refresh.

    Example

    /* button red */
    .btn-primary { background: red; }
    
    /* center navbar item */
    .navbar { justify-content: center; }

    Viva tipDevTools se pehle try, phir file mein permanent change.

  2. 2
    Cache
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    Example

    @cache.cached(timeout=50, query_string=True)
    @app.route('/api/shows')
    def shows():
        return jsonify([s.serialize() for s in Show.query.all()])

    Project example: Admin dashboard counts / venues list cache. Create/update/delete ke baad cache.delete('venues').

    Viva tipprint('DB queried') function ke andar laga ke miss/hit demo karo — hit pe print nahi chalega.

  3. 3
    Celery Output
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCelery = background naukri. HTTP request ko 10 second email bhejne ke liye mat rokna.

    Distributed task queue: aap function ko abhi nahi, worker process mein later/retry/schedule pe chalaate ho.

    MAD2 typical jobs: daily reminder mail, monthly HTML report, user-triggered CSV export.

    Web request 200ms hona chahiye. 10,000 emails request thread mein = timeout. Worker alag CPU pe kaam kare.

    Redis broker chahiye. Beat alag process schedule ke liye.

    Example

    @celery.task
    def daily_reminder():
        for u in User.query.filter_by(active=True):
            send_mail(u.email, 'Book something today!')

    Project example: User Export click → 202 Accepted. Worker CSV + email. Daily 6pm Beat reminder.

    Viva tipWorker + Redis bina Beat ke user-triggered chalega. Scheduled jobs ke liye Beat bhi chahiye.

    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleNaya Flask route: URL, method, auth if needed, query, jsonify. Postman pehle.

    Examiner number/filter change easy rakhna. CORS. Frontend tabhi jab bole.

    Status codes sahi. Password JSON mein nahi.

    Examiner 2 cheezein: simple desi line + tumhare project ki exact file.

    Pehle ID, GitHub, portal ZIP. Phir run: Redis + Flask + worker + beat + Vue. Feature demo: login, RBAC, cache hit/miss, Celery mail, search.

    Line pe ungli: input kahan, kaunsa check, query/cache/task, JSON/UI. Copilot band. Jo nahi kiya honestly bolo + kaise add karte.

    Example

    @app.route('/api/sum', methods=['POST'])
    def sum_num():
        d = request.get_json()
        return jsonify(result=d['a'] + d['b'])

  4. 4
    4)asked cdn vs cli
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCDN = Vue script tag se, jaise pen drive. CLI/Vite = poori factory (SFC, npm, bundle).

    CDN: no build, chhote apps, exam PC pe Node nahi to bhi chal. Weak: no .vue compile, 3rd-party cache, scale/team.

    CLI/Vite: Single File Components, env, code-split, production dist/. Scalable.

    Examiner 'which + why' — jo use kiya wahi justify, doosra naam rato mat.

    Example

    <!-- CDN -->
    <script src="https://unpkg.com/vue@3/dist/vue.global.js"></script>
    
    # Vite
    npm run dev
    npm run build

    Project example: CDN: index.html unpkg vue. CLI: package.json, npm run serve / vite.

    Viva tipCDN scalable large teams ke liye weak (no SFC compile, caching 3rd party). Examiner 'which + why' poochta hai — jo use kiya wahi justify karo.

    7)Asked about rabc jwt implementation and module used for it
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleJWT teen tukde ki signed chitthi: header.payload.signature. Padhi ja sakti hai, badli nahi ja sakti.

    Encoded (Base64) + signed, encrypted nahi (JWE alag). Payload mein password mat daalo — koi jwt.io pe dekh lega.

    Login pe server secret se HMAC (HS256). Har API Authorization: Bearer <token>.
    Expiry exp. Change payload → signature fail → 401.

    Session MAD1 server yaad rakhta. JWT MAD2 client rakhta, server stateless-ish.

    Example

    eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.{"sub":1,"role":"admin"}.signature
    # Authorization: Bearer <token>

    Project example: POST /login → token LS. fetch interceptor header. @jwt_required APIs.

    Viva tipAlgo HS256. Secret env var. jwt.io pe payload dikhao, secret public site pe mat paste.

    Lifecycle of vue
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleLifecycle = component ki zindagi ke stages. API call tab jab DOM ready ho — mounted.

    created: instance bani, this data, DOM nahi. mounted/onMounted: page pe aa gaya — fetch, Chart.js, setInterval.
    updated: data change ke baad. unmounted: cleanup (clearInterval) warna memory leak.

    Dashboards onMounted isliye: canvas/API tab valid. created mein $el nahi.

    Composition: onMounted(() => {}) setup ke andar.

    Example

    export default {
      async mounted() {
        const r = await fetch('/api/venues')
        this.venues = await r.json()
      }
    }

    Project example: Venues.vue mounted fetch list. Clock component unmounted pe interval clear.

    Viva tipcreated: data setup, DOM nahi. mounted/onMounted: $el mil gaya — fetch yahi. Dashboards isliye onMounted use karti hain.

    - Then he asked me to show celery tasks and explain why we have used redis and celery
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleRedis box hai, Celery us box se kaam uthane wala worker hai — same cheez nahi.

    Redis: store (cache keys) + queue (broker lists).
    Celery: Python library jo tasks define karti hai, .delay() se queue mein daalti hai, worker execute karta hai.

    Dono localhost pe ho sakte hain. Alag Redis DB index use karo. Redis band = cache miss + Celery stuck.

    Example

    Celery: broker_url='redis://localhost:6379/0'
    Cache:  CACHE_REDIS_URL='redis://localhost:6379/1'

    Project example: export_csv.delay(user_id) Flask se. Worker Redis se task uthata hai, CSV+email. Cache alag keys venues.

    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleAuthentication: tu kaun hai? (login). Authorization: tujhe permission hai? (role check).

    Example

        session['user_id'] = user.id
    
    # authz
    if user.role != 'admin':

    Asked to explain caching.
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    Example

    @cache.cached(timeout=50, query_string=True)
    @app.route('/api/shows')
    def shows():
        return jsonify([s.serialize() for s in Show.query.all()])

    Project example: Admin dashboard counts / venues list cache. Create/update/delete ke baad cache.delete('venues').

    Viva tipprint('DB queried') function ke andar laga ke miss/hit demo karo — hit pe print nahi chalega.

    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleClick → Celery → worker CSV → email/download. Columns verify.

    csv module. Auth required. Don't freeze UI — 202 + poll.

    Examiner 2 cheezein: simple desi line + tumhare project ki exact file.

    Pehle ID, GitHub, portal ZIP. Phir run: Redis + Flask + worker + beat + Vue. Feature demo: login, RBAC, cache hit/miss, Celery mail, search.

    Line pe ungli: input kahan, kaunsa check, query/cache/task, JSON/UI. Copilot band. Jo nahi kiya honestly bolo + kaise add karte.

    Example

    @celery.task
    def export_venues_csv(user_id):
        rows = Venue.query.all()
        # csv.writer, mail.send
        return 'ok'

    Project example: Admin export venues. MailHog attach ya file open.

    Viva tipNetwork tab mein job trigger API dikhao, phir MailHog/file open karke columns verify karo.

Advice: He was very Chill. All the questions he asked were already in sheet. Time was 6pm but he joined 6:15 bcoz of something, still he was calm and didn't rush me for anything. Gave me time for doing what he asked, like installing the dependencies and all takes time. I was kind of just notifiying him like backend is running now, redis-server is running... Between these installs, there was complete silence, he didn't ask anything and I was just saying things after completing them or when he asked. Be calm, explain everything confidently. All the Best!!
