Projects
Full-stack task board developed with React, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS. The application displays tasks in Todo, Doing and Done columns, supports real-time search and provides a separate form for creating new tasks.
Tasks are loaded and created through a Node.js and Express REST API, with persistent storage in Neon PostgreSQL. React Router provides separate views for the task board and form, while Vitest and React Testing Library are used for component testing.
Responsive webshop developed with semantic HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The website includes a product catalog, featured products, a shopping cart, accessible forms and media content, with layouts adapted for desktop, tablet and mobile devices.
Product data is loaded asynchronously from a JSON file using the Fetch API and rendered dynamically. The project also focuses on accessibility through descriptive alternative text, keyboard-visible focus indicators and WCAG-compliant color contrast.
Backend for a webshop built with a microservices architecture. The system consists of an Auth Server, Product Service, Order Service and Email Service. Communication is handled through REST and RabbitMQ, JWT is used for authentication, and PostgreSQL is used for data storage.
My main responsibility was the Order Service, where I worked with order logic, communication with the Product Service, JWT forwarding and RabbitMQ integration.
Web application developed with Spring Boot and integrated with Google Gemini through a REST API. Users can ask questions through a web interface and receive AI-generated responses in real time.
The solution uses Thymeleaf for the frontend, PostgreSQL for data storage and Spring Data JPA for database access. Each question and answer is stored in the database and displayed in a history view. The Gemini integration was implemented manually using HTTP requests and JSON data to gain a deeper understanding of API communication and external services.
A standalone project where I built a secure login flow with Spring Boot and Spring Security. Users can register, choose whether to enable two-factor authentication, and then sign in using a password and a time-based code from Microsoft Authenticator or Google Authenticator.
The project generates a secret key that is stored in PostgreSQL and embedded in a QR code that can be scanned by an authenticator app. Protected pages require both a successful login and a verified MFA code.
Secure webshop built with Spring Boot. The system includes registration, login, product catalog, shopping cart, order management, profile page, GDPR-compliant cookie handling and administrator functions. Order confirmations are sent through a separate Message Service responsible for email delivery.
My main responsibility was the product area, where I worked with the Product entity, ProductRepository, ProductService, the product page, an admin function for creating products, and tests using both an H2 database and a mocked repository.
Developed a web application with Jakarta EE where users can register accounts, log in and communicate in real time. The application uses JSF as the presentation layer, CDI for dependency injection, JPA for database management and PostgreSQL for storing user data.
Implemented user registration, authentication and session management, and developed a separate WebSocket server that enables real-time communication between connected clients.
Team-developed web application built with Spring Boot for managing the Drink, Food, Pizza and Spirit resources. The application follows the MVC architecture and provides full CRUD functionality with Thymeleaf as the presentation layer and PostgreSQL (Neon) as the database. I containerized the application with Docker and was responsible for deployment on Render.
My main responsibility was developing the Drink module, where I implemented controller, service, repository and validation logic as well as custom exceptions. As an individual extension, I implemented a Jenkins-based build process with Maven Wrapper, Logback-based logging and integration tests with Spring Boot, MockMvc and H2 to automate the build, testing and quality assurance process.
Individual project developed with Spring Boot using a layered architecture (Controller, Service and Component) to simulate basic ATM functions such as deposits, withdrawals and balance management. The application uses Thymeleaf for presentation and implements custom error handling through custom exceptions for different business rules.
I implemented business logic for transaction validation, balance management and withdrawal limits. The project was complemented with extensive testing using JUnit 5 for unit tests, Mockito for isolated testing of the service layer and Playwright for end-to-end testing of the web interface. The tests verify both normal user flows and error handling to ensure that the application works correctly throughout the stack.
Team-developed web project built with Spring Boot and Thymeleaf according to the MVC architecture (Model–View–Controller). The application consists of several functional modules for managing and presenting users, people, appointments, ratings, tags, comments, tasks and queues through separate controllers, models and views.
I participated in developing backend logic and the web interface by implementing Spring MVC controllers, creating domain models and building dynamic Thymeleaf views. The project provided practical experience with routing, data transfer between controller and view, the use of model objects and structuring a Java-based web application according to established design principles.
Developed a client-server chat application where multiple users can connect simultaneously, register accounts, log in and send messages in real time. Communication between client and server takes place via Java Sockets, and the server handles multiple clients in parallel using multithreading.
Implemented storage of users and message history with Spring Boot, Spring Data JPA and MySQL. The project follows a layered architecture with separate service, repository and domain layers and includes unit tests written with JUnit and Mockito.
Lab project focused on Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and relational databases. Implemented a database connection to MySQL and functionality for storing and retrieving data using SQL queries.
The project uses the DAO pattern to separate database logic from application logic and includes management of database connections, PreparedStatements and mapping between database tables and Java objects.
Lab project focused on relational databases and SQL. Worked on creating databases and tables, defining primary and foreign keys and performing CRUD operations for data management.
The project also included database normalization according to First Normal Form (1NF), modelling relationships between tables and using JOIN queries to retrieve related information from multiple tables.
Lab project focused on document-based databases and MongoDB. Implemented a DAO layer in Java to manage storing and retrieving data from a MongoDB database in the cloud (MongoDB Atlas).
The project included CRUD operations, filtering, updating and deleting documents, as well as using the MongoDB Java Driver for communication between the application and database.
Individual extension of a text-based adventure game in Java based on a provided starter project. The game is built on object-oriented principles where the player explores different environments, fights enemies, collects items and develops their character.
Implemented new game areas, enemies and game mechanics as well as file-based storage of statistics using the DAO pattern, a leaderboard, the Builder Pattern for creating players and the Singleton Pattern for application configuration.
Developed a console-based webshop in Java where users can create, search for and view products. The application uses object-oriented design with inheritance, abstract classes and polymorphism to handle different product types.
Implemented file-based storage through serialization to save and load products between runs, as well as support for both console-based and dialog-based user interfaces through a common interface.
One of the first lab assignments in the program, focused on fundamental Java programming. The assignment involved working with methods, arrays, loops, parameters and return values to build an understanding of the language's fundamental constructs.
Implemented functions for printing arrays, finding the largest value and methods with parameters and return values. The project laid the foundation for later work with object-oriented programming.
Full-stack football tournament platform where clubs can publish tournaments and manage categories, groups, venues, fixtures, registrations, teams and match results.
Built with role-based ADMIN and TEAM_MANAGER workflows, automatic standings, public tournament hubs, responsive line-up visualizations, multilingual support and light/dark themes. Club subscriptions are planned for a later launch phase.
Full-stack price-tracking application where users can monitor product URLs, set target prices, review price history and receive configurable email notifications when prices change or reach their targets.
Built as an independently developed production-style service with secure account management, Google OAuth 2.0, two-factor authentication, subscription-ready Stripe integration, RabbitMQ-based notification processing, automated tests, CI/CD and an always-on Docker deployment on Render. The public Premium subscription is planned for a later launch.
The application link will be activated when the project launches.
