This repo is an online version of my resume and an exposition of various projects I've done. This includes engineering, research, and software development. This is also hosted on GitHub pages, under this link.
This is the frontend only, built with React, D3, and Bootstrap. It is my playground for pushing myself to build and learn new ideas and web design concepts. It was initially deployed to Microsoft Azure and backed by a Spring Boot API, but that became difficult to manage and extremely slow, and Github Pages was a good alternative.
All that is necessary to deploy this site is to run npm run deploy in the
command line, and the website files will be deployed to the gh-pages branch
of this repo. After this, changes should always be pushed to the master branch
to save the updates.
Here is a short list of the projects that I've worked on - this is only a supplement to what is on the website, which is based on results.
This was a project I did with a partner in Arduino, which uses a condensed version of C++.
I did this project with a partner in Python, in an introductory class in data programming. It was done initially with Seaborn and Pandas, although I went through after the class was over and redid it in Altair, which looks much nicer on the web, as it is vector-based.
This was a project where I wanted to learn Maven, Spring Boot, React.js, and D3.js. Getting D3.js to work with React was incredibly difficult to troubleshoot, as it doesn't seem to be a common approach. I finally found a talk on Youtube that explained how to use hooks well enough with D3 to let me make the visualization that I wanted to.
This was a project that I did with a partner for fun, competing for a week in a 3D modeling competition. We used SolidWorks, since we were both familiar with it and it was easy to access via remote desktop at UW. The victory was incredibly satisfying, since we beat graduate students and mechanical engineering students, even though we were freshmen and I was more of an electrical person.
