Keepr
Vue.JS

Vaults can be set to private, allowing only the creator to view them, while public vaults are accessible to all users. The application also tracks how many times each keep is viewed or saved to encourage engagement. The app is built with Vue.js on the frontend, providing a dynamic, user-friendly interface. On the backend, C# and ASP.NET handle the server-side logic, using Dapper to interact with a MySQL database. The platform integrates Auth0 for secure user authentication and supports a many-to-many relationship between keeps and vaults, with features like private vaults and user-specific data retrieval.

The Network
Vue.JS
RESTful API
Bootstrap
The Network is an online platform designed to help alumni stay connected and share updates. Built as a Vue.js single-page application (SPA), the app integrates with a social networking API to provide functionality for creating and managing posts, searching for users, and interacting with others. Auth0 is used for authentication, allowing users to log in, create their own posts, edit their profiles, like posts, and delete content they’ve created. The platform also includes features like user profile pages, post searching, and pagination to navigate through the most recent posts. The main responsibilities of the front-end involve implementing various views using Vue.js and Vue-Router, ensuring proper data handling for authenticated users, and presenting posts, user profiles, and advertisements in a visually appealing way. The app utilizes query parameters to search posts and profiles, while managing state and rendering changes dynamically. Users can view posts, interact with them, and enjoy a streamlined social experience within the platform.

Art Gallery
Vue.JS
RESTful API
Bootstrap
Art Gallery is a Vue.js front-end app where users can browse and appreciate fine art pieces. The app fetches data from an API and displays artwork in a paginated format. Users can navigate through pages of art using next and previous buttons. Each piece of art can be "appreciated" by clicking a button, which adds the user to an admirer list. The app allows users to view the artwork in a larger modal and see details about each piece. Using Vue.js components like ArtworkCard, HomePage, and pagination, the app fetches and renders data asynchronously. Enhancements like lazy-loading lower-resolution images and optimizing the modal for full-screen views can be added for a smoother user experience.

RESTful API
Bootstrap
Inspire is an app designed to keep you motivated by combining a to-do list with inspiring quotes, beautiful scenery, and weather updates. The app allows authenticated users to manage their to-do tasks, creating, updating, and deleting items as they work through their day. Along with the to-do list, users are shown a random daily quote and a scenic image, helping to keep them inspired and focused. Weather updates for a user-specified location are also integrated to provide a complete daily overview. Built with vanilla JavaScript, Inspire leverages multiple asynchronous API calls to fetch weather data, quotes, and images from various endpoints. It supports user authentication with Auth0 and uses the observer pattern to manage asynchronous data and ensure that the app responds dynamically to user interactions. The to-do list is the core feature, allowing users to manage tasks with full CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionality, all stored in the cloud and accessible after login.

MVC
Bootstrap
Jot is a simple note-taking application designed to help users organize their thoughts. The app allows users to create, edit, and delete notes, all of which are stored in the browser's localStorage for persistence. Each note can be viewed and edited individually, and the active note is clearly highlighted for easy access. When users refresh the page, their notes are restored, ensuring a seamless experience. Built as a front-end only app, Jot follows the MVC (Model-View-Controller) design pattern. The app features a form for creating notes, with validation to ensure only valid notes are saved. Notes are dynamically displayed in a list, and users can set an active note, which is highlighted for editing. The app also supports deleting notes, with a confirmation prompt to prevent accidental deletions, and updates the UI accordingly.
