sudokian.io

Sudoku for a modern age. Creative. Multiplayer. Mobile. Login with Twitter / Facebook / Google

Built an Azure-heavy gaming website based on a 100%-pure Angular (TypeScript) SPA backed by a series of Node.JS (ES6) services. General data (e.g. colors, themes, other static lists) and specific game moves were stored in Azure Table Storage. Game-specific user data, in-game notification data, and social-media sharing data were stored in a CentOS7-hosted MongoDB instance. Azure App services provided Node.JS and HTML5 static hosting with multi-slot deployments for release testing. SVG sprites were setup in Azure Blob storage distributed with an Azure CDN. Styles modularly added with Sass. Authentication and social-media identity services were setup via Auth0. Realtime multplayer interactions were setup with websockets via socket.io.

CloudArchive

Binary content management tool. Upload blobs to Azure Blob Storage or S3 and track the data in MongoDB, Elasticsearch, or Azure Table Storage. The primary example scenario is using this application as a Podcast management tool, including ID3 tagging and database updating . Python-based application.

StormDeck

Manage Twitter thread / storm / micro-blog content from any device in a clean and professional, securely-encrypted cloud environment. Azure, Node.js, Angular 2.
