Projects

bpirrocco.dev

Built with: Pure HTML, SASS, and JavaScript

My developer website, home to various CSS and JavaScript experiments. This is a static website, hosted on AWS using S3. I have taken advantage of services such as API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB to provide additional functionality, like the visit counter you see above. This site acts as a hub for the following projects, some which have been containerized and are running on AWS. Feel free to pay it a visit!

Wavaré

Built with: Python, Django, HTML, SASS, pandas, Meteomatics API

Web app developed using Django framework. I created this app to display big wave forecasts for several beaches across Portugal. I developed two versions of this app, one that acts more as a CMS, with a custom library made to generate simulated forecasts for the locations, and the other pulling real time wave height forecasts from Meteomatics.

Jomboy Podcast Aggregator

Built with: Python, Django, Reach Native, feedparser, HTML, Bootstrap

This web app pulls in information about the podcasts produced by the independent media company, Jomboy Media. Users can register for an account where they choose some of their favorite Jomboy podcasts, topics, and content-creators, and the app will give them suggestions for other content from the company.

Nova Band Website

Built with: Javascript, React, Node.js,

Website for my New Jersey-based cover band. This site allows booking agents and fans to contact us, view our upcoming events, and give song suggestions. There is also a member portion of the site for the band members. Here we can share our personal schedules and collaborate on arrangements from anywhere.
