Featured projects

Caravan (WIP)
A ridesharing app to plan road trips together with friends. Created with NextJs and a separate Quarkus backend. The frontend is deployed to Vercel and the backend is deployed to AWS.

Chirper
A Fullstack social media platform app. Basically a copy of Twitter. Powered by Laravel, Inertia, React, TailwindCSS and shadcn. This is the first project with an MVC architecture and has taught me some basics. Initially started as a bootcamp project for Laravel and later extended to include features like social authentication and real-time chats.

ToDo-App
Fullstack ToDo-App on steroids. Powered by Spring Boot, React, OAuth 2.0, TailwindCSS and shadcn. Deployed in a GraalVm native image. During this project I got to deepen my knowledge in the Java ecosystem and especially with Spring Boot.

Hops App 2.0
A new and revisioned Hops App made fully with NextJs, and additionally with Next-Auth, TailwindCSS and shadcn. I use this app personally to plan my studies for the academic year. It shows how many periods courses span, and calculates a load for a period based on the ECTS's of courses spanning that period.

Beerify
A simple fullstack beer rating app. Completed as part of a uni course, Beerify is powered by React, TailwindCSS, shadcn, ExpressJs and postgres. Beerify is a simple app that allows users to post, edit and delete beer reviews. This project was completed in a group and that taught quite a lot about collaborating in github repos and projects.

Hops App
Hops App is an app to plan your studies. The core functionality is a special calendar where users can add courses to the calendar and the application will automatically calculate credits and workload. The application is built with React, Material UI, and TypeScript, NodeJs, ExpressJs, Apollo GraphQL, and MongoDB. The app was completed as part of the Fullstack Open 2022 studies.
