At Career Foundry I've learnt how to make basic and dynamic websites using HTML5, CSS3, frontend frameworks like Bootstrap, JavaScript and jQuery. I've also learnt how to build production ready web applications using Ruby on Rails on Heroku. Let's not forget about application security, databases like Postgres and Redis or Git version control or unit and function testing. I've adopted new problem solving skills and a neat way to code.

Go on and see some examples of my work. I've learn all this in about six months and am eager to learn more! I will begin my information technology studies as an adult student in a University of Applied Sciences briefly.

Production Ready E-commerce Application

As a final work for my Web Development course I created a mock up e-commerce application that sells prints. It uses user identification and authorization, Stripe payment possibilities, ActionCable channels and other features. The application is hosted on Heroku. It is made with Ruby on Rails. It uses Postgres as a database and Redis for caching. Check out Valpuri's Printshop Github repository here.

How's It Cookin'?

As an optional project I completed a blog application. It is completed with Ruby on Rails and is hosted on Heroku. It uses a postgres database. This application is used as a humorous cook book where the admin can write articles and users can comment on them. It implements a proper text editor. The dog face of the chef on frontpage is my darling Valpuri. Check out How's It Cookin'? Github repository here.

My Portfolio page

Following pages are a website portfolio and website examples I've completed during this course. The purpose of these has been to learn new techniques.

No Good Oldie Calculator

No Good Oldie Calculator was made as an independent exercise for my course. The task was to create a functional calculator with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I was interested in learning more about the 3D transformations included in CSS3 and tried them out here! Please try it out with the newest version of Google Chrome or Firefox. This project is not browser optimized.

Teal Space Time

During my course we created a very basic parallax effect with both CSS and JQuery plugin. I wanted to make a more elaborate parallax effect with only CSS. Since space sceneries are quite inspirational and fun to do I chose it as my theme and created several levels. I also added a click and hold animation for the spaceship. Please try it out with the newest version of Google Chrome or Firefox. This project is not browser optimized.

Future plans

I've completed the Career Foundry Web Development course and now it is time to hone my skills even further. My goal is to learn more about JavaScript frameworks and start my information technology studies. I'm also looking for a trainee or a junior position in this field. If you're interested, send me an email!
