Featured Projects


MBTA Bus Locations Project

Massachusets Bay Bus Locations

A live look at the locations of all MBTA buses around Massachusetts Bay, using the MBTA API and MapboxGL. Data refreshes every 20 seconds.


Pac Men Project

The PacMan murders...

Create Pac Man-like critters in random locations and set them in motion (with initial random velocity and direction). Watch them bounce around the page! Created using HTML, CSS, Javascript and four images for the Pac Man characters.

I wanted to make this project more like a game, so I added the ability to 'explode' the critters with the mouse cursor. The game makes use of various CSS 'transition' properties as well as Javascript to keep track of collisions.


Moving Eyes Project

Interactivity

The eyes follow you wherever you (the mouse cursor) goes!

Created using only Javascript, HTML and CSS (no images).
