Worked on a small web app with a gif-making feature that allows users to start a drawing and pass a link to the work-in-progress to others so they can collaborate on the project. Built the solution using Docker to deploy the backend API and frontend React-Redux component. Utilized and experimented with different technologies on the project.
Developed a website to help the client showcase their work with sewing "patchworks". Built the solution from the ground up using Rails and Docker - implementing portions with Nginx and Turbolinks.
Built and deployed a Jamstack site to showcase the client's art gallery, cafe, AirBnB and event hosting businesses - transforming the previous Wix site into a Next.js solution and implementing all design components on the solution.
