COVID-19 Tracking App
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the world like never before. We have seen multiple spikes in cases around the world, including here in the State of Hawaii, and this pandemic just seems to be an endless issue. The COVID Tracker is here to help.
Contributions
My main contribution to this project was implementing the add vaccine card feature to the application, which involved working with an external service, Uploadcare, to store the images that the user uploads from our application to their servers. My other main responsibility was updating the documentation page to reflect the latest state of our application.
The Experience
This project was relatively straightforward to implement. However, most importantly, I had a lot of fun working on it! Considering that I have not worked on Meteor since ICS 314 (two years ago), this was an excellent refresher as well as a great way to gain more experience in working with APIs. The Uploadcare widget was used to allow users to upload an image of their vaccine card to the application (see screenshots below).
