My name is Luke, and I am a full-stack junior developer and graduate of Maker's Academy. In a previous life I spent five years working in Parliament, where I was a senior adviser and speechwriter. I built this site to showcase some of the things I have been working on; for more information please get in touch using the contact link above.
Spy API
A development tool to mock API responses to ensure consistent results. Built over three days using Ruby, Rails and PostgreSQL, with RSpec and Capybara for testing.
Road to Code
An animated game teaching foundational coding concepts. A pure JavaScript and JQuery frontend (plus Jasmine, Zombie and Chai for testing), with a Sinatra PostgreSQL server for tracking scores.
Yelp clone
A mock of restaurant review site Yelp made with Rails. Users can add ratings, reviews and endorsements, upload images and sign in with Facebook.
Exchange rate API
This app pulls in live exchange rate data to track the price of bitcoin over time, pushing the results to a separate API for graphical display. Created with Node.js and RethinkDB database.
Rock Paper Scissors
A simple Ruby implementation of the classic game rock paper scissors. The game has a two player mode as well as a single player option against an AI opponent.
