Projects
Senior Capstone Project - EZBag
www.github.com/SCCapstone/EZBag (currently private)A scan-and-go webapp to streamline customers' shopping experiences and automate a business's inventory tracking.
My role in this project is to develop a single page application for customers to scan and pay for items in their shopping cart. To simplify collaboration for our team with little front-end experience, I selected Vue as a framework for its component-based architecture and the Vuetify Library to enforce a consistent UI design.
My biggest takeaway from this project is the importance of consistent communication and being open to change. In a team of five, there are five different visions of the final product, so it’s important to amicably resolve these differences as early in the design process as possible.
