Logs

Purpose

This Logs project was born out of a personal need to have one place to keep track of things I have worked on.

Originally, I thought it would be used to track my daily logs while completing coding days for one hundred (100) days of code. However, while developing it, I realized that I could use it for many accomplishments. Some of those being work related to help prepare for reviews and personal life related to help track first events and travels.

Requirements

This was my first application building the whole stack (front-end, back-end, and database) of and I really like JavaScript (VanillaJS). Therefore, I decided on the following requirements:

  • Use JavaScript for both client and server side code
  • Do not use any frameworks on either the client or the server
  • Use MongoDB as it natively supports JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)

Challenges

  • Did not know MongoDB nor how to set it up
  • Did not know how to connect the parts of a full stack application

Achievements

  • Acquired Associate Cloud Certification from Google Cloud
  • Gained Intermediate level of Node (not Express) knowledge understanding
  • Gained intermediate level of MongoDB knowledge
  • Able to Post/Update/Delete Logs
  • Custom designed and implemented application and logo.

What’s Next
