Hey there!
I'm Adam Horn.
Computer enthusiast and full-stack developer.

I've been coding consistently since 2021 when I enrolled in a bootcamp focused on full-stack web
development. The experience taught me I enjoy solving the problems that I found with computer
sciences and I have a solid grasp of the fundamental concepts. To gain a stronger understanding
of key concepts and technologies, I enrolled in a computer science certificate program at a
community college (the equivalent of an Associate's degree without the general education requirement).
Additionally, I have a Master's in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and a Bachelor's in Political
Science and Communication. The collection of my abilities lays out a unique venn diagram of skills that have been very useful in all my endeavors.
Aside from my professional and academic credintials, I play recreational ice hockey, enjoy backpacking,
traveling, listening to my favorite podcasts, and spending time with my dog and cat.
For my professional and educational experience, review my
résumé.
Here is a collection of my recent development work. As I continue to do more coding and improve my work, I will display new projects here so please check back frequently. If you like my work or want to share feedback, please send me a note via the contact page.
popflix
This was my first group project as part of my coding boot camp.
Users may search by Genre, Decade, Minimum Rating and Actor Name. The initial movie
search is accomplished using IVA Entertainment Data Hub API. A random movie is
selected from the IVA search results to be fed into the queries from uTelly API and
the Movie Database IMDB Alternative (IMDB Alt) API to obtain the links to where a
movie can be streamed and the movie poster, respectively. The site utilizes
Materialize CSS framework. I am honored to have worked on this project with Joseph Guajardo and Skyler
Blakeslee.

WeatherBee
Here is a simple weather app I developed as a coding student as I
was learning to use APIs. I used Bootstrap for much of the HTML and style code. It
pulls data from the "Current Weather Data" API and the "One Call API" available on
OpenWeather. The information produced is for current weather and a 5-day forecast
for locations entered into the text input field. Current Weather returns current
information on temperature, humidity, wind speed and UV index. The 5-day forecast
produces information on the forecasted day's temperature, the forecasted low
temperature, the forecasted maximum temperature, and the forecasted humidity for the
next five days.

Quiz Project
Welcome to a fabulous, fantastical financial quiz! Here you will
find a set of questions that test on some financial terms and financial history.
Try, if you will, your best to guess at the right answer and find out your score at
the end! For each correct answer, 10 points you get. For each wrong, however, lose 5
points and 10 seconds from the time allowed. At the end, each second left will be a
point to your final score.

Password Generator
This project was part of my coding boot camp to develop a password
generator using the JavaScript we were being taught. The instructions were to have
us use prompts and confirms to verify certain parameters for the password. However,
I was having trouble understanding the use of prompts and confirms for the
assignment and found an instructional video that presented a different way to build
the project.

Social Trailblazers Website
This website began as an optional holiday assignment for a coding
boot camp to gain practice working with Bootstrap, HTML, and CSS. The prompt was to
create a fan site, the topic of which was our own choosing. Although I enjoy
fictional entertainment, I thought I would take it more in the direction of a fan
site for notable individuals and organizations actively involve with practicing
change and impacting our societal norms.

Santuario de Tabata Website
This is a website I developed purely for practice apart from the
boot camp activities. I wanted to engage the tools and skills I was developing in
project of my own making. This site was built in phases. The initial phase was
simply HTML but as I learned Bootstrap and CSS, I incorporated those languages and
frameworks to make this site.
