Full Stack Development
MCR Codes taught me to utilise an Object Oriented Approach to Programming. I now write robust code and practice Test Driven Development. As a result, I have been able to create structured, layered and designed websites using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and React. The course focussed on full stack development so I can now run a webserver and create APIs with Node.js and Express. I also have knowledge of NOSQL databases such as MongoDB which I use to store data. I have deployed many projects to Github and have included some links below for you to enjoy my work!
