React
Elixir
JavaScript
AWS Lambda
AWS
Real-time feedback collaboration. This is my project, where I worked on both the back end and front end. The back end consisted of the API part and a reverse proxy in Elixir and Phoenix, enabling us to open other websites in an IFrame embedded inside our front end. The front end consisted of three different areas: the customer-facing part in React, embeddable Vanilla JS to be embedded inside proxied websites, and a Chrome extension to allow us open more complex websites inside iframes.
AWS JavaScript SDK
2016 | https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/pull/857
JavaScript
Contributed to the AWS JavaScript SDK, where I fixed uploading to the S3 progress bar identifier for multiple files simultaneously. When you tried to upload multiple files at once using AWS SDK, it was not working before because there were no keys (IDs) for each file, causing a problem, and only one file could be uploaded. This PR was a suggested fix by adding a key for each file, making it handier for FE developers to track the upload of each file.
