PERSONAL PROJECTS
MeetApp (2021)
MeetApp was my engineering capstone. It is a social navigation app that allows creating meetings and inviting your friends to them. MeetApp will then let each user know when to leave to make it on time. It will even move the meeting time so that everyone can arrive at the same time. Watch the video to learn more.
MeetApp has both a client, written in react native, as well NestJS and MongoDB back-end providing a RESTful API.
SoulCraft (2015)
SoulCraft is a video game modification I created for the popular game minecraft. Programmed from scratch, re-using and adding to stock minecraft code, I created soulcraft to further my understanding of object oriented programming and learn java. Soulcraft gained the attention of many players in the Minecraft community and has very positive reviews. It has been downladed more than 50,000 times and has been played 2 million times to date.
Cryptorial (2020)
Cryptorial is a web app aimed at teaching people about Cryptocurrencies and blockchain using interactive examples. It also explains some common trading and finance terms that come up frequently when discussing crytocurrencies.
It uses react, and the CoinGecko API for getting live Cryptocurrencie data.
