Capital One's Engineering Summit Programming Challenge 2019
Build a web app to find trivia questions by category
JQuery out of date; I have no intentions of changing the code, however.
PHP, Javascript, HTML, CSS, JQuery, MySQL
- Users are able to log in; passwords are stored securely via hashing/salting
- Logged in users can save questions to a favorites collection
- Users and non-users can simulate a Jeopardy board
- Use of jService's search API to match categories with a user's queries in real time (non-mobile only)
- This was done through web scraping in pure Javascript
- Inspired by flat UI
Hosted on Amazon Web Services's free micro instance (AWS): http://ec2-3-19-227-64.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com/~felixhu/CapitalOne/search.php
Searching, loading the game board simulation, and the category refiner may experience some latency due to calling for large amounts of data from the jService API.
