About Me

About Me

A fast, complete solution to event coordination and creation. Share your events, create calendars, play games with your attendees and have check-in and check-out integrated. Events can range from social gatherings to badminton tournaments. I created this app as a "PWA", which stands for "Progressive Web App". This means you can download the app onto your phone and use it like a native app. Learnt how to build a large-scale application with SvelteKit and Firebase.

I learnt semantic versioning (v1.1.0), Logging in with Google, SvelteKit page routes ("website.com/home", "website.com/app", etc.), Firebase database rules (Rules controlling access of a database).
