With CS 343’s final presentation tomorrow, this will be the last post for this project. (Unless I choose to keep playing around with it later) The work on this project has really helped me learn HTML, CSS, and TS. The newest feature I added to my Pokedex SPA was having the background colors linked toContinue reading “Final Presentation Eve”

More SPA progress
With the semester coming to an end and the holidays, I’ve been busy and have not made as much progress as I would have liked on my SPA. I did find a better way of obtaining the evolution chains. The looped API calls were a sloppy solution, but I realized I could simply make multipleContinue reading “More SPA progress”
Final Project Progress
For my final project in CS 343, I have chosen to create a Pokédex SPA that uses a public database, PokeAPI, with RESTful API. So, my focus has been on page layout and how to search for data with limited methods since the backend is all set. I went through several different ways of tryingContinue reading “Final Project Progress”
Angular CDK and Popover
With CS 343’s final project beginning, I have looked into some ways of displaying data. For this week, I will focus on Angular’s CDK. In Netanel Basal’s article “Creating Powerful Components with Angular CDK,” Basal describes the process of making an overlay in angular. He starts with creating a Popover service, Popover being a componentContinue reading “Angular CDK and Popover”
Understanding Angular with Tetris
For this week’s post I read through Michael Karén’s article, “Game Development: Tetris in Angular.” As the name suggests, this article demonstrates how to make a Tetris game in Angular. This is a great example project that shows many of Angular’s functionalities without being too complex. It covers topics introduced in CS 343: components andContinue reading “Understanding Angular with Tetris”
Getting Angular
The topic for my post this week is Angular. CS 343, Software construction, design, and architecture, introduced REST API frontend last week. I did not have a good grasp of what Angular is, so I read the article “Angular Tutorial: Getting Started With Angular 4”, by Shubham Sinha. The article breaks down Angular into easyContinue reading “Getting Angular”
Time for some more REST
This week I have chosen to deepen my understanding of REST API. The article, “RESTful API Design Tips from Experience” by Peter Boyer, goes over good RESTful design practices. The article covers many topics, including some I do not have experience with but are still useful for a greater understanding overall. The article proposes thatContinue reading “Time for some more REST”
Getting a solid grasp of SOLID
For this week’s blog, I have decided to go over the SOLID set of design principles. The blog article “SOLID design principles: Building stable and flexible systems” by Anna Monus describes SOLID and gives solid examples of each design principle with code and UML diagrams. Single responsibility Each class should only have a single responsibility,Continue reading “Getting a solid grasp of SOLID”
REST and RESTful
The article, “REST vs. RESTful: The Difference and Why the Difference Doesn’t Matter,” examines the Representational State Transfer pattern, or REST, and its implementations, RESTful services. The author, Eric Goebelbecker, mentions REST pattern’s creator Roy Fielding, and provides a link to Fielding’s dissertation. The article then defines REST’s architectural constraints. Client-server architectural style, separating responsibilitiesContinue reading “REST and RESTful”
An Introduction
This blog will be a look into my point-of-view of pursuing a career in Computer Science. This blog was started as a requirement for a couple of my CS classes but I intend on using it for non-school content as well. The classes that will be referenced in some of my posts are Software QualityContinue reading “An Introduction”
