A GPS tracker service site using Node.js, MongoDB, AngularJS, Leaflet.js, and Bootstrap. As the main developer, I built both the front-end and back-end for the whole site, while my client worked on the tracker protocol and GPS data processing. The main challenges were:
1) solving AngularJS SEO problems
2) finding a way to dynamically scale a tracker's sampling points while the map's zoom changes.

A project time tracking web app developed using AngularJS and Firebase. This is one of the most challenging front-end projects I've ever worked on. My client was a distinguished designer and emphasized UI details. I helped him to implement a very customized and UI-friendly time calendar. It looks gorgeous.
