MyJourney

My Journey is a place where you can share journeys you have taken in life on a timeline.

Project Overview

In July 2020, I was accepted to a Software Development program at Western Governors University. I was pumped, and I wanted to share with others how I fell into Software Development.

I wanted to share my journey on a timeline, so people could see how I really didn't plan to be a Software Engineer, and maybe help other people on their journeys.

While I was planning this project out, I realized I should build a website where anyone could share their journeys, which led me to build MyJourney, a place where people can share journeys on a timeline.

This project was a lot of fun. Here are some of the things I built for it:

  • Laravel 7 Application.
  • VueJs components for mobile menus, dropdowns, and functionality to keep from having to do a full refresh when sending some API requests.
  • Implementing on the journey pages so that users can easily update their journey.
  • API routes for some Vue Components.

Overall, I am grateful I was able to build MyJourney.

When I was building it, I started getting wild ideas that MyJourney might be super useful to people and it could be a huge success. Now, I am not so sure, but I learned a ton, and that is what matters to me.
