The rubber meets the road when building a real-world project

Project Spotlight: Tattered American Dent Removal by Barry Jalbert

Barry recently graduated with honors from our Front End Web & Mobile development bootcamp and wanted to build something for real-world application.

The avenue Barry took was to build a React website for His brother's dent removal company, Tattered American Dent Removal.

Accompanying React Native mobile app

In addition to the standard array of pages, he also built an accompanying React native mobile app that allows an administrator to record customer information, add before and after photos, and rate information.

Some of the challenges Barry faced was getting all the elements to align properly, deploying the onhover effects for the images, and getting a looped video to autoplay while being contained in the primary hero banner.

A lot of the front-end work was written with the intent to tie everything together in the back-end.

After his success in the Front End course, Barry has already started the back-end portion of the Full Stack course to make his vision a reality.

We look forward to seeing more of Barry's work and the full realization of his vision as he works through the next bootcamp course.
