Spotlight App was born after an interview with the CTO at Global Radio. I was working as a contractor for Global Radio in order to supervise the implementation and delivery of Global Radio Intranet which was developed by a third company. The Intranet was being developed using SharePoint Online. During the interview they asked me my thoughts about creating a SharePoint Workflow to perform the annual reviews at Global Radio. I told them that a workflow was not the proper solution for this kind of problems, I remember thinking about the Golden Hammer antipattern, one of the most common AntiPatterns in the industry, it tells us how often we use a technology or product as a solution for any kind of problem. After that they told me if I was willing to analyse and develop a better solution. Spotlight as an idea was born.
