Boot Camp Projects
Project 1
First HTML Project
This project was to test being able to code a website using provided images. As this was the first project of the class, it is very basic, and doesn't have a many features as future projects.

Guessing Game Project
This project was started after introducing Javascript. The objective was to make a guessing game, like hangman. The word is randomly chosen from an array, and input is captured with key presses.

jQuery Gem Clicker
A rather unfair game that makes no sense in the long run. This project incorperates jQuery for grabbing click events and modifying text on the page.
View ProjectProject 4
Giphy API Project
My first dabble into APIS and AJAX, this project displays GIFs using the GIPHY API with AJAX calls.

Train Timetable
Using Firebase for a remote database, and moment for time calculations, this site can be accessed anywhere, and will show the same anywhere.
Being UpdatedProject 6
Friend Finder
The first time using Heroku to push a site, and using Express for API routing. A lot of new stuff in this assignment.

TOYoda
The first presentable group project I did, this one uses everything we learned to make a used toy selling site, much like "Offer Up". I did work with the front-end for this, and helping around with some back-end development. New things used were Handlebars, and using a Google login.

Mongo Web Scraper
Using MongoDB and Cherio, this is just a web scraper. Nothing fancy going on, but it was my first time using MongoDB as a remote databse. While it's not my best work, it shows that I can put together a web app using MongoDB.

React Memory Game
This is the first time I used React. While not very content heavy, it is using a brand new technology to me, and will get better as I continue to use React, and become more aquainted with it.
