Activity Decider


This is a random activity generator for people who are bored and indecisive. It utilizes an online API to fetch and display data based on the category of activitiy the user wishes to partake in. This project was completed individually for a web development class I took as a student at the University of Washington.

Technologies/skills employed:

HTML: forms the structure of the webpage
CSS: manages all the styling, thematic elements, fonts, etc.
JavaScript: adds functionality to the buttons, fetches and categorizes the activities then displays them on the client side
AJAX programming: using online API to fetch data and update webpage
Visual Studio Code: IDE used for the development of this game/site
Gitlab: managed and saved various versions of the project during the development process, ran code quality tests
Github Pages: when migrating from my school files to my personal portfolio, I used Github pages to host this site
Reading and Utilizing Others' Code/APIs: This gave me a chance to navigate and build upon existing APIs/pieces of code, which is an important skill in industry
