Rock, Paper, Scissors Game

Building this rock, paper, scissors game brought some challenges with manipulating classes to change images and my first time using the switch statement. I also got experience trying to get scores to increment, and learned a valuable lesson on parameters and arguments when it comes to functions.

It was fun trying to get the logic to work correctly, then breaking it down to simplify the code and still manage to get it to work.

I got more practice on manipulating the DOM. I really enjoy creating things out of nowhere and having them be a functioning part of the page.

Once I got all the functionality working properly I just kept wanting to add new features and learning more ways to do things differently.

Expense Tracker App

Making this expense tracker was a lot of fun. It was a good challenge to get all the elements to display out in a table format.

Learning how to manipulate data will help me when working with it on a backend server. I liked creating the functions that made a table element and then getting it all to line up in their own cells.

I used Felxbox to make it easy to get all the HTML inputs to line up nicely for clean layout. I used a little more CSS on this project than on others, as I wanted to give it a nice look and feel for the user.

I also used local storage on this project. That proved to be a bigger challenge than what I thought. It was a little different than how I used it on my ToDo app because it was more elements than just one. But it was a great learning experience, nonetheless.

Calculator App

Building this calculator project helped me further my knowledge of Javascript. Getting all the calculations to work properly was a great challenge for me to figure out. Fixing one problem and having another one pop up gave me a real sense of how programming is.

I got a lot of experience using the debugging tools in Chrome. Having to run the code over and over, putting stops at different points in the code, and breaking down what was going wrong helped me develope my problem solving skills to a new level.

Along with that, I learned about bubbling. This made cycling through all my buttons very easy. I used switch statements for the calculations and memory buttons to siimplify the functionality. This has been one of my favorite projects to work on, so far.

Guitar Selection Website

This website is something I came up with as a beginner project. I used the bootstrap framework for my HTML, which made the layout easy and fully responsive. I enjoyed making it one large page with multiple sections. Still giving it a feel of having different pages.

With this site I tried to work on my design skills a little more and pick colors and fonts the clean. I really love to make website that are visually appealing, as well as functional. I have also created mt first logo desing for this site, too.

The Javascript was fun to create for this project. I had no experience switching between lists and getting them to hide and appear when an attribute was selected, nor setting up a form to be emailed. I really enjoyed making this website.
