Built with React, TypeScript, and ASP.NET Core, this project strengthened my skills in REST API development, frontend and backend integration, authentication, real-time communication with SignalR, and secure image uploads. It also provided hands-on experience designing API endpoints, managing game state, and deploying a full-stack application.
Inspired by Jackbox Games and What Do You Meme, Meme Me is a multiplayer party game where players create custom memes by pairing captions with images and compete to come up with the funniest combination.
Space, the final frontier...
Well, more like one of the first frontiers. This is one of my earlier school projects.

A mobile app that helps users track the amount of water they drink. It's integrated with Google Firebase for user registration and authentication. It also uses Google Firestore to hold user information such as weight, age, and water drinking history. The app allows the user to enter the amount of water they drink each day and to see their history of water consumption via time plot.

I've always been interested in video games and game design but never did more beyond simple games like hangman (lots of hangman). GoDot allows for beginner-friendly game development, perfect for someone like me who has programming knowledge and wants to cut their teeth with a bigger, more in-depth game; and what game is more fun and easier to understand than the classic Super Mario on the NES?
