Thoughts on web development, data, and technology

A retrospective on Content Management System Development, the course where I installed WordPress on a LAMP stack, configured a WooCommerce store, and edited PHP templates, skills that felt more like a detour than a destination after two years of building full-stack applications from scratch.

A retrospective on Project and Portfolio IV, the course where I took an existing application and made it production-grade: integrating access control, user activity auditing, cloud-native services, and a full deployment into a scalable environment, all driven by a formal discovery and milestone process.

A retrospective on Web Application Integration (WDV4416), the course where I stopped asking whether my applications worked and started asking whether they would hold up: building unit tests, load testing a live server, automating monitoring with Selenium, and stress-testing under real traffic conditions.

A retrospective on Application Integration and Security, the course where I learned Python from scratch, worked through authentication and vulnerability management, and shipped a containerized application to AWS, all under the weight of a two-strike course policy.

A retrospective on Project and Portfolio III, the course where I diverged from the suggested Spotify project and built a Full Sail Alumni Networking App from scratch, complete with user registration, social profiles, a blog, and a collaborative project board, managed entirely through Agile sprints and weekly SCRUM.

A retrospective on Cloud Application Development, the course where I left local servers behind for good, learned to build with AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, Cognito, and AppSync, and shipped a serverless application powered entirely by cloud-native infrastructure.
