To-do List

I did this to-do list because the world certainly needed another one :) And I wanted to practise using Redux and React, as well as learning how to use local Storage to have a persistent state.

Formula One Project

I loved working on this project at Northcoders - we learned how to make a restful API with Node and setting up a database with MongoDB to return all F1 data to our site. It was lots of fun making the big video background too!

Web Calculator
