    paper Rental Residence Hub

    The application designed to help users find vacation rentals effortlessly. Intuitive use, filtering of available properties, view detailed descriptions and reviews.
    There were 60 pages of requirements regarding UI that were implemented in 3 weeks, and I am proud of the result. Minimalistic design, blue and white colors patterns and live geolocation make it light and pleasant to use.
    The layout supports both desktop and mobile.

    uniE608 Forno Roma
    This is complete online pizzeria where user can view menu, create orders with add-ons (except paying of course). User can observe order status in-live and many more. I completed this project in 3 weeks. The UI/UX design, frontend and backend, html, css etc are completely mine work whereas chat GPT really helped me to select colors, fonts and name. Innovative thing in this project is an agent that understands voice and add pizzas to a cart. Its layout tailored for desktops only for now!
