Project Reflection
This one was pretty quick and easy to put together. Different people from marketing and sales would always ask me if I could make them QR codes for things, and no amount of redirection could quell their thirst for convenience. So I built this little web app and deployed it on EC2.
An added bonus for them is that it can also be used as a value add for clients, which is nice; anyone can use it and it's genuinely not big enough to really cause much tech debt, which is awesome.
This is the first Flask project that I successfully deployed. I learned about WSGI servers, a few different bash utilities, and got the opportunity to play with python, which is always a treat.
