Recent Projects

Shipwrek Prototype Website

React, JS | June 2022

As my first freelancing web developement project, I created a responsive and modular web app with custom CSS. This project uses components to display given parameters while also using optimal coding techniques and uploading regular updates on GitHub. I also worked directly with the client to create designs to their specifications.

*Disclaimer, this is not the official website of Shipwrek, but rather a prototype that was shown to them.

Notes App

React, JS

This project was my first attempt at learning the React JS framswork. In this notes app, I learned the fundementals of React JS, such as using using React hooks (eg. useState, useEffect). This project also incorporates the use of local storage to save the notes that are typed to the local device.

Crypto Trading Bot

Python

This was the first quantitative analysis project I worked on, and it taught me so much while working on it. Using the Binance API, I connected a Websocket client with my Binance API keys to gather the price of specific cryptocurrencies. Using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator aquired using TA-Lib, I automated the purchase and selling of coins within certain parameters of the RSI indicator.
