Additional Information
In the summer of 2024, I coded a website that summarized my stats for the app, Strava. A fully implemented website (Backend/Frontend) in C++/Python that was used to give you a yearly summarization of your progress and achievements directly from the app itself. Utilized different software programs like VS Code and Webstorm to establish the foundation for my project. It was fully launched only to my friends and family who used the app consistently. It took about 3 months to develop and complete the project.
