Truncheons & Flagons

A component and state-based web application developed with a team of four using JavaScript, JSON, CSS, and HTML. This is a tavern game app for a fictional Medieval drinking game called Truncheons & Flagons.

I collaborated with the team to create the overall styling and fetch calls to the local database. I individually developed the functionality of the leaderboard, allowing new teams to populate, new scores to be added or updated, and teams to rank highest to lowest by score. I also took lead in database management.

This project pushed me way outside of my comfort zone. At the time, I thought I understood JavaScript array methods, but when putting my knowledge to the test, I quickly found areas I needed to improve on. My greatest takeaway would be seeing what my weaknesses were and where I needed to spend extra time practicing. Through it all, I had a great team to lean on for my first group project.
