mongodb

This project involved setting up a couple MongoDB collections and then building a responsive frontend for user interaction. This app allows adding users by name, then using that user's ID to add activities. The API allows for querying for user activities by user ID as well.

The UI uses a pug template and bootstrap for most styling, and some custom css rules to fine tune elements.

This was actually the first project that I completed out of the new Free Code Camp curriculum, and replaced the previous Google Image Search Abstraction project that I had already completed previously.

This microservice creates an abstraction layer (and history) between the user and the Google Images search API.

The challenge here was to create a URL Shortener microservice. It uses a database to associate a short url ID with the original url, and once created, the microservice will redirect visitors of the short URL to the original URL.
