Instructions

Design and implement a solution to the following task, with the following requirements in mind

• The solution should be clear, concise, efficient and maintainable.
• Provide an abstracted solution that demonstrates an understanding of business logic and presentation separation
• Do not make use of any libraries that are not part of the standard language libraries.

You are of course free to use whatever resources or references that are available to you, but it is expected that the design/solution will be 100% your own.

Your solution should be accessible through online revision control and source code management (GitHub, Bitbucket, etc). Don't rush it. No extra marks for getting it done quickly.

Task

Create a Flickr image gallery using PHP. The user should be able to enter a keyword, which is then used to search Flickr. The search results should be paginated and displayed as five results per page, and the user should be able to navigate to other pages. Each image should be displayed as a thumbnail; clicking on the thumbnail should display the full-size image and any abstract or title. Keep in mind that your solution should work efficiently, no matter how many images match the keyword.

Hint: Extra points for implementation of any of the following:

• git flow
• flexible configuration
• unit testing
• automation

Note

This is an opportunity for you to showcase your skills and knowledge of good programming practices and methodologies. This is a backend test, therefore presentation is not a priority(JS, CSS).
