Hello, my name is Pearce! I am the creator of Projects Simplified. I am currently a student at UMBC earning my B.S. Computer Science. I made this website with the goal of showing off my frontend and backend development skills. I've been learning web development since Janurary of 2025 so I'm fairly new to it. If you have any questions or would like to reach out to me, send me an email at pearcepackman@gmail.com!
As discussed above, this is my first time implementing a backend on a website. Node.JS was used to create the backend and Express.JS was used to develop the middleware , handle different routes, and implement a RESTful API. SQL was also implemented to handle users, projects, and tasks.
The frontend of this website was primarily built using Express.JS views which have similar syntax rules to HTML. I've also used a CSS file to transform the look of the website and add more interactivity. Additionally, JavaScript was used to enhance the user experience by handling dynamic behaviors.
