I have recently graduated from the Software Engineering Immersive Bootcamp at General Assembly. The course helped me to strengthen my existing programming skills by building 4 projects, gain experience by working in collaborative environment and project management skills by following strict deadlines and having to plan the workload while working full-time. I am now able to use these skills to increase productivity and optimise the IT side of my current employment and looking to transition career change from Management to Tech.

Project 4 - Company Planner

Visit Site | See Frontend ReadMe | See Backend ReadMe

• Used React and ‘React-Bootstrap’ for frontend, Python and Django REST for backend to create RESTful API.
• A platform aimed to solve a real-life problem at current employment by reducing paper waste and making data more centralised and accessible

Project 3 - Find Me A Doc

Visit Site | See Frontend ReadMe | See Backend ReadMe

• In a group of three planned and white-boarded backend and frontend implementation of a MERN project. Used ‘Trello’ to assign tasks and ‘Slack’ to communicate progress.
• Used React and ‘React-Bootstrap’ for frontend, MongoDB, Express and Node for backend to create RESTful API.
• Solely implemented – backend: schema design, seeding, patient/doctor/review routes; frontend: navigation (including login/logout state), edit profiles functionality based on the type of account, saving postcode coordinates ‘Mapbox Geocoding’ API, leaving reviews functionality.

Project 2 - Whats My Footprint

Visit Site | See ReadMe

• In a pair planned and white-boarded the project – a platform to check the carbon footprint of food products by connecting to ‘Carbon Cloud’ API with a private key.
• Used React and ‘react-dom’ to create a frontend application with several routes, used ‘Bulma’ for styling and ‘Nivo’ library to visualize data in charts and pies.
• Implemented ‘useContext’ hook to avoid ‘prop-drilling’ and allow smooth data flow throughout the app.

Project 1 - The Pandemic Game

Play The Game | See ReadMe

• Designed and created a custom game instead of replicating an existing game.
• Used JavaScript, HTML and CSS to design a playable game involving a basic game logic - winning, losing, scoring points and being able to restart the game with initial parameters.
• Implemented ‘requestAnimationFrame’ as a core running function as opposed to ‘setTimeout’ to reduce lagging when the game rapidly and frequently creates multiple new DOM nodes.
