Austen Tangen
Brewer turned Web Developer
For me, there is no greater sense of accomplishment than seeing others find joy in the things you've crafted.
Most recently, this desire to create unique experiences has led me to the world of Web Development. I've just completed the Full Stack Coding Bootcamp through Rutgers University and am seeking to further expand my skillset and help build accessible, inclusive web applications.

Interests
When I’m not at the computer, you'll probably find me out hiking, swinging around some kettlebells in the garage, training muay thai, or homebrewing.

Projects
Apparati Furniture
A mock website for an online furniture store. The site itself leverages reusable React components to keep things clean and maintainable for development and utilizes a backend built with MongoDB to store and keep track of inventory. Backend links to Stripe for payment processing.
Ashland Beer Works
A custom Wordpress theme built for a small craft brewery. It leverages the Wordpress engine and custom post types to allow the website owner to easily add, update, or remove products. Custom queries allow users to search for what beers are currently available or view the entire archive of beers produced.
BrewTools
A complete recipe-builder/calculator app for brewers. Design your brew from our database of malts, hops and yeast types and generate accurate batch statistics. Create a free account to save your recipes for future reference. Uses MongoDB to store user data, ingredients, and saved user recipes.
CodePad
A text-editor program for developers that recognizes different datatypes and color codes them for easier readability. Utilizes the browser’s indexedDB and local storage as a failsafe to save user input incase of internet outtages or crashes. Built with Babel & Express Webpack.
