💬 Potential Interview Questions

How do you ensure pixel-perfect, responsive designs when implementing mockups in HTML/CSS?
I use semantic HTML5, SCSS or CSS3 with mobile-first media queries, test across devices, and match designs precisely using tools like Zeplin or Figma overlays.
What are the key benefits of using Vue.js and Vuex in a web application?
Vue.js offers a lightweight, reactive, and component-based architecture, while Vuex centralizes state management, enabling predictable and debuggable application behavior.
Describe your approach to handling asynchronous operations in JavaScript.
I use Promises with .then() or async/await for cleaner syntax, and ensure proper error handling via try/catch or .catch() for all async flows.
What challenges have you encountered with cross-browser compatibility, and how did you address them?
I've dealt with inconsistencies in Flexbox and grid layouts; I use progressive enhancement, polyfills, feature detection, and regular testing in tools like BrowserStack.
How do you optimize front-end performance in Vue.js applications?
I lazy-load components, use code splitting, minify assets via Webpack, optimize images, and avoid unnecessary reactivity or deep watchers.
How do you manage global state and side effects using Vuex?
I define strict modules for separation of concerns, use actions for async logic, mutations for state updates, and ensure immutability and traceability of state transitions.
What is your process for translating a vague product idea into a clear, implemented front-end feature?
I start with stakeholder interviews, sketch wireframes or flows, prototype key interactions, get iterative feedback, and then implement incrementally using Vue components.
How do you ensure accessibility (a11y) in front-end development?
I use semantic HTML, ARIA roles, keyboard navigation, color contrast checks, and testing tools like axe or Lighthouse to ensure compliance and usability.
Describe your experience integrating with RESTful APIs in front-end apps.
I fetch and handle data using axios or fetch, structure services for reusability, manage loading/error states, and normalize responses in the Vuex store.
What’s your approach to maintaining design consistency across a complex UI?
I follow a component-driven approach, create and reuse a design system or style guide, implement shared utilities, and enforce visual consistency via atomic design principles.
