Hi, I am Daniel Hu

Software Developer

What I have learned

Front-End

I am proficient in HTML, CSS, JavaScript and React and know how to use them to build mobile responsive website. I also have some understanding of styled-components, Redux, React-Router and Typescript.

Back-end

I started learning Python since 2012. I majored in biology at that time and used python for computational biology. Now I start to learn Python frameworks such as Django and Flask. Life Is Short, Use Python.

Other skills

I'm an automation developer at the moment. I create robots that help people to deal with some boring and repetitive works.

My Work

Xintong's Kitchen

I built this website from ground-up by using React. Now I'm working on migrating it to a Python Back-end.

The design of the website was inspired by a pizza restaurant near my home. Eating pizza all the time is not healthy, so my website only offers food that 'looks healthy'. You can make an order, but I don't have enough money to hire a chef at the moment.

Meme Match

I like playing video games, so I decided to practice my front-end knowledge by building game applications. I used React to build this game. The rule of the game is simple, but the game itself is not as easy as it looks like.

A Very Simple Snake Game

This is a simple snake game. I only used vanilla JavaScript to build it. Debugging a game is very challenging but rewarding.

I add a controller for small screen, so you could also play it on your mobile phone.

This is my story. Hope you like it.
