Negozio E-shop

I dropshipped an eCommerce website managed by the CMS Joomla and VirtueMart. I made a custom Joomla component to import the catalog in XML format. The dropshipping system allows me to have access to an extensive inventory without having a physical warehouse. This technique has allowed me to create eCommerces with no particular investment in terms of money.

Film Stream Online

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1gUbxjqBTA
I built a desktop application for personal use at the age of 17. It was created in Visual Basic 2010 .NET, and it enables searching and watching movies while streaming. It shows information and trailers by getting data using PHP web scraping on some trusted websites.

After choosing the film, a user with a simple click could display an iframe to the movie from Megavideo. The product allows you to bypass the advertising and change the IP after 75 minutes (Megavideo limited the streaming after 75 minutes), you can also set a timer to shut down the PC automatically. It uses a MySQL database and PHP back end.
