Embracing the timeless brilliance of Meditations, I used an algorithm and the text from the book to programmatically determine the number of syllables in each word. The application then creates Haikus based on this word set. The result? A harmonious

Embracing the timeless brilliance of Meditations, I used an algorithm and the text from the book to programmatically determine the number of syllables in each word. The application then creates Haikus based on this word set. The result? A harmonious blend of art and code, where Haikus gracefully emerge from Marcus' original philosophies and prose.

Introducing my personal take on a bit.ly clone! The driving force behind this project was the desire to learn how URL shorteners work. Although I don't expect the same amount of scaling and collision possibilities as the original, I still enjoy having my own working bit.ly clone to use for my own applications to be able to send folks clean looking URLs. This was also my testing ground for neumorphism design.

The Lap Day app was inspired when I was looking at my cat Freya, and I wanted to figure out the day when we are the same age in human years. This idea also provided a perfect opportunity to learn about creating ICS files for calendar events. The app

The Lap Day app was inspired when I was looking at my cat Freya, and I wanted to figure out the day when we are the same age in human years. This idea also provided a perfect opportunity to learn about creating ICS files for calendar events. The app allows users to input their birthday and their pet's birthday, and it calculates the "Lap Day," generating an ICS file to save the event in their calendar.
