  • Project 2

    This was my second project, a fully functional website about my favorite game, Minecraft. Here are some screenshots:

    I learned how to use Javascript, HTML, and CSS to make a functional website.

    Being able to use Gemini to get the code necessary to make the website possible.

    It was very challenging making sure all of the code was functional and inputted correctly as most of the time there would be something wrong because of a small mistake, and the whole website wouldn’t work.

    I could find more things to add to my website, like more Minecraft related games and links.

    Perhaps another guest speaker for the next time, as they were very insightful about the process of making the website.

    I am able to make my own websites about anything I am passionate about and share them with the world.

    The guest speaker we had was very helpful and inspired me to be more creative with my website and to add the quiz along with my website.

  • Project 3

    This was my final project, an AR choose your own adventure style game. Here are some screenshots:

    I learned how to utilize Figma in order to make AR related apps and interactions.

    It was easy to make the buttons in order to interact with the video.

    It was very challenging making the videos themselves and adding the AR effects to them. Having to add the arrows and text in the right spots, as well as exporting the right timeframe of each clip was very technical and tricky.

    I could make more paths to take rather than the rather streamline path that I had in my path, and in doing so, find more ways t add interaction.

    You could give us more options as far as apps to use for editing rather than just Figma. Apps like Premiere are much simpler in terms of editing.

    I am now able to create Augmented Reality in apps and in websites that I might choose to make in the future, and am more well-versed in Figma.

    There was no reading or video that helped me, rather my instructor and his lectures that helped me to be able to complete this project.

  • Project 1

    This is my first project, My To Do app, titled “To Do For YOU!” or TDFY for short. here are some screenshots:

    I learned how to use Figma very effectively and am now able to use simple commands like selections and variables to help with future projects.

    The easy part was designing the frames and making them look good.

    The challenging part was coding the frames to do what i wanted to, as sometimes I would miss a step and it would mess up the whole process.

    I feel I could improve my submission by just adding more design and detail. It’s quite basic, and could definitely use more detail.

    This assignment could be improved by giving students more ideas for extra things to add like the back arrow and more cool options and settings.

    I can apply this knowledge by being able to use Figma more effectively to create more advanced apps and designs for future projects.

    I feel like the guest speaker really inspired me to really use my imagination and really just explore my many ideas and add them to my project.

    This has been my first project, and I can’t wait for project 2! This project was really fun!
