🔨 Projects
Inventories.gg
Inventories.gg has been the most complete and feature full project I've worked on since gaining as much experience in React. It is a Minecraft inventory viewer for any server who wants to display their players inventories for others to see. Technlogies include Material-UI, MongoDB, React and NextJS. Authentication is using OAuth handled by Clerk.dev
Godot Kart
Godot Kart is a Mario Kart inspired multiplayer Kart racing game built using the Godot Engine. After discovering someone made a single player demo of the game, I took lead on building the multiplayer behind the game which includes all client interpolation, a master game server browser, and the game servers.
Hashmap.me
Hashmap.me was my implementation of simplifying the ability to persist data between restarts for an application. Anytime a developer wants to begin a project they will begin by storing data into their applications memory. This aims to allow developers to simply upload thier cache through HTTP and then on startup pull that cache back down.
Chasebin
Chasebin is a simple project to help boost my familiarity with NextJS and React. It is a code formatter that can generate links that are parseable client side only. The code snippet gets converted to Bytes using LZMA and then converts each byte to BASE64 and appends this to the URL, along with the selected language formatting selected.
