COVID-19 California

React, Node

The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 has to be one of the most crazy and scary things I've experienced in my lifetime. I was a huge fan of The LA Times Coronavirus Tracker and was inspired to make this.

Since there are no APIs to get state specific Coronavirus data yet, I built a web scraper in Node to take it from latimes.com. Stay safe and check it out.

Peachjar - Campaign Submission

React, TypeScript, Material UI, Apollo, Express, PostgreSQL

Worked with awesome product designers, so yes the UI is pretty. This was a special project for because I worked at Peachjar when they were on a legacy PHP application 5 years ago. Owning this workflow, and contributing to the migration to a microservice/micro frontend architecture was super rewarding!

This page went through many iterations after getting user feedback. We used to have a TON of form fields here, but realized users want uploading flyers to be quick and easy.

The school map finder was the best part! Solving problems around search, and returning large data sets was challenging and fun. Then I got to do a lot of the devops work for their data scientist, and deployed his Python service that generated school recommendations with Docker and Kubernetes.

Work Pong

React, Redux, Webpack, Semantic UI, Firebase, Google Auth, Netlify

At work, we're super serious about the pong life. We used to use a free SlackBot to keep track of our office ping pong standings. It kept asking us to purchase it for $29.99... super annoying. I made our own. Slack integration coming soon?

BrandonFerrer.com

Gatsby, React, GraphQL, WordPress, Instagram API, Google Maps API, Netlify, Semantic UI

I wanted to build a React SPA that was crawlable for SEO. Gatsby was a dope solution. My intention for this website was to be a blog, along with showing my upcoming travel plans and Instagram feed. I chose to use WordPress as a CMS.

I've gone through a lot of color and minor style changes, probably because it's so easy to deploy new changes with Netlify. It looks pretty nice on mobile! I don't even use the Instagram app anymore, I just come here. Just kidding.

ICMonster Cafe

HTML, CSS, Javascript, Bootstrap, Gulp, PSD to Web, SendGrid PHP Lib, LAMP

My friend opened an ice cream shop, and her sister from China is a graphic designer. She mocked up PSDs, and I wrote some code... and ate a lot of ice cream.
