Building a Triangle Peg Game - A Showcase of Complex Logic and Problem-Solving Skills

The Triangle Peg Game is a classic brain-teaser where the objective is to jump pegs over one another, removing them until only one peg remains.
My project involved the design and development of a digital version of the Triangle Peg Game. I used JavaScript.
I meticulously implemented the rules of the game, taking into account the possible moves and interactions between pegs. This included capturing the logic for jumps, legal moves, and end-game conditions.
Thorough testing and debugging were critical to ensure a smooth gaming experience.

Building an Original Trivia Game - A Combination of Technical, Creative, and Problem-Solving Skills.

The objective of this original game that I designed is to answer trivia questions correctly and earn points.
The sum of the two dice rolled not only determines the points but also the time available to answer each question.
This project gave me the opportunity to apply the knowledge I acquired during a 5-week immersion in learning React.
As the lead developer on this project, I not only contributed to the development but also took on responsibilities such as task assignments, and the creation of meeting agendas and reports.
Thorough testing and debugging were critical to ensure a smooth gaming experience.

Update:

After completing the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) as a team, I continued working on the project independently. I freshened up the game's visual design, upgraded the state management system, and added exciting features like a scoreboard. Users can now choose from different trivia question categories and decide the number of questions they want to tackle. I'm thrilled to present the final product—a trivia game that's not only entertaining but also customizable for endless enjoyment! Check out MVP here.

Building the backend of my note-taking app - Server-Side Development / API Design / NoSQL Database Management / Authentication and Authorization.

My note-taking app isn't just about jotting down ideas; it's about creating an intuitive, reliable, and secure platform that enhances the user experience.
The backend, often unseen but always crucial, is where the extraordinary unfolds. It is the engine that powers the entire application.
I created and worked on this project during my enrollment in the Nucamp coding bootcamp. I then presented it to the project review team, and that effort helped me graduate with honors.
I really enjoy working on backend development.
