Color-Flipper is a color picking app built using JavaScript. This app was made with the focus of improving my modular pattern programming tecniques. It is heavily inspired by the Google color picker tool that is available for everyone to use online. This project taught me how to be an effective user of modular pattern of programming.
Hang Man was a fun project made mainly using JavaScript, it is a relatively easy project to make, though it took 3 months to finish due to other projects taking precedence. Techniques used within this project revolves around functional programming, html canvas element, as well as Factory Functions.
Project Library is another JavaScript based project, it is a great way to learn Object Oriented Programming using JavaScript, particularly, in the topic of Constructor functions. Although constructor functions are not the best practices to use due to its prone to errors, it is still a fundamental aspect of JavaScript that still needs to be learnt.
Booking page is a project mostly made with CSS, it is a beautful project designed for hotel display. This website is a great exercise for flexbox design and usage, hence the reason of using flexbox as the main CSS tool.
