Assertion Library

https://www.chaijs.com/
Chai is an assertion library for Node.js. The app is very popular and has over 6,000 stars on GitHub.

I worked as one of the core maintainers of this open-source project.

Nimble

https://www.diffia.com/
Nimble is a clinician's assistant in their pocket. It allows clinicians to communicate with other physicians and nurses at a hospital.

Joga

Joga is a mobile app designed to track and improve the user's soccer skills using their smartphone or smartwatch. The app delivers a complete analysis of the player's performance on the field or on the court.

FIXME

FIXME is a web app built on top of GitHub's API. The goal is to list all the issues of all the projects you are following on GitHub and sort them by the last update time so you can start fixing the oldest problems first.

It's also open source, the source code can be found here:
• https://github.com/vieiralucas/fixme

Joga Pro

http://wearejoga.com/pro/
Joga Pro uses GPS-tracking devices to track professional soccer players in the field and provide analytics in a cloud-based platform.

Data Validation with TypeScript

A little framework that I built for doing data validation using TypeScript. The framework makes it very easy to validate data and can be used for forms or validating some inputs to an API.

I plan to transform the framework into an open-source library in the near future.

Belief

https://github.com/vieiralucas/Belief
Belief is an initial Promise implementation. The purpose of this library is to show that Promises are just JavaScript and to prove to myself that I could implement it.
