I am Kristina Karrass, a Junior Full Stack Developer and have recently successfully graduated from the Coding Boot Camp at UNC Chapel Hill. The course offered an intense immersion into Front End and Back End technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, MongoDB, Node.js, React.js, MySQL, AJAX, RESTful API. I have also learned incorporating libraries such as Bootstrap and Materialize to develop beautiful and appealing UIs.
You will find samples of my journey on this page. It shows how much I have grown from the beginning of the course. You can click the links to see the deployed versions of my work or check out my code on GitHub. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy!
