Experience

Chess Web Application

This basic online chess application supports multiple players. I built the entire application from scratch. The project was built with Spring Boot using Java and a MySQL database for the back end, while JSP in HTML was used for the front end.

Simple Messenger

Users can sign up and send chats to their friends using this messaging application. I built the entire application from scratch using Node.js and MongoDB for the back end and React for the application's front end.
