At work, I was working on adding ‘back-to-top’ scroll button feature for when the user scrolls below the fold, and wants to get back to the top of the page without using their mouse and clicking through all that space on the scrollbar. At first, I wanted to write a…

Mod 5 Final Project- the feels.

You have the thoughts of “I don’t want my project to look like every other Bootcamp graduate’s project.” It’s competitive out there. That time you have in between your final lesson, and review is crunch time. Time to build everything out and make sure it works, but still make it look nice.

Module 2: Building a CRM website and using Corneal

Well hello. We made it far. Reeeeal far. I just completed my app with everything I’ve learned so far. It felt like building a website from scratch; which I did, just without the web-server hosting part. I used the Sinatra framework with Active Record, following the MVC model, with multiple…
