Hello, I'm James

Welcome to my GitHub profile!

About me

I started out teaching myself Java (no, not JavaScript), and things just snowballed from there!

jimreed91

I've built some FullStack Rails applications but recently have been working mainly with Node and React.

My pinned projects are all solo ones, but there are a couple of bootcamp projects in my repo if you want to check them out. Nurture actually continued for a few months and participated in an accellerator program which was exciting to be a part of.

I'm from the UK 🇬🇧 but have been located in Japan 🇯🇵 for the last year, it's been an exciting time!

⚠ Right now I'm looking for projects to contribute to! ⚠

Most Recent - not necessarily my most impressive work

Testing

Working through setting up testing for a Node API and React components with Jest and then integration tests in Cypress.

Chirper

Testing out PHP, Laravel and Vue with Laravels 'bootcamp' tutorial and a few of my own experiments.

=> Chirper

Docker-compose (micro project)

I put together a docker-compose file for locally running uptime-kuma, not really necessary unless I change computer since it starts up automatically but I wanted to refresh on how it works a little.

=> Uptime Kuma Compose

Building a Node app with authentication from the ground up

Coming from using primarily RoR, building with node certainly requires a deeper understanding of how all the parts come together eg middleware. Thats what I wanted to get out of this project and exactly what I came away with! Frontend is coming soon for this one :)

=> Node BlogList

A project to scrape my sharewars solutions

I don't think my solutions are anything special but this was a fun project, I may need to refactor after my latest learnings!

=> ShareWars
