I will first provide a test because I must see you can do the job. Plenty of work to follow I need help wiring a single, well-structured JSON file into our application so it can drive all configuration settings that currently live in several scattered places. The goal is to read that file at startup, expose the values to both our internal modules and a pair of third-party REST APIs, and then allow future updates without a full redeploy. Here’s what I’m looking for you to deliver: • Schema design or validation logic that guarantees the JSON stays consistent. • A lightweight loader (preferably in Node.js or Python—happy to discuss) that parses the file once, caches it, and hands the data off to the rest of the app. • Hooks or endpoint wrappers so the same configuration values are also sent to the two external APIs we rely on, in whatever format they need. • Clear documentation and a short README so the team can tweak the settings themselves later. Acceptance criteria: the application must boot with a single command while pulling every setting from the JSON file, and both external APIs need to confirm they’ve received the correct values via their test endpoints. If you’ve done similar configuration-driven integrations before, let’s get this moving quickly.
