For my second project at Flatiron school we were challenged with creating a CRUD MVC app using the sinatra gem. I decided to further extend my first project from a CLI app into a web app. I created a simple cryptocurrency portfolio tracking app. That allows users to sign up and then add coins to their portfolio so you can see what is going on with all your coins in place.
For my first project at Flatiron School we had to make a CLI gem. The gem should scrape information from the web, then get input form the user and then show more information. For my project I decided to scrape CoinMarketCap.com, and get the top 100 crypto currencies. Once you select a currency either by typing in the name directly or looking at the paginated list of coins and entering the appropriate number you are provided allot of up to date information on the coin. For Example USD price, BTC price, 24 volume, market cap, max supply, and circulating supply.
After taking a few months off from coding to run a 3D printing company. I have decided to go down a different path, and learn web development. I am really excited for this new adventure and all the optunities it will open up for me.
