Projects

Live systems and labs with repositories you can open.

Live Serverless / Azure / APIs

PitWall

Serverless Formula 1 dashboard on Azure, backed by historical OpenF1 data. The browser never calls OpenF1; visitors read a Function API that serves a private Blob cache.

View repository Open live site

  • Timer snapshot plus cache-aside race details in Blob Storage
  • Standalone Function App for the timer trigger, Static Web App on the Free SKU
  • OpenF1 calls paced and cached so page views do not burn the upstream budget

Live Cloud / IaC / CI-CD

Azure Static Web App

Cloud-hosted portfolio deployed on Azure using Terraform and GitHub Actions, demonstrating Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, secure deployment practices, and cloud cost awareness.

  • Azure Static Web Apps with Terraform-managed infrastructure
  • GitHub Actions for automated, repeatable deploys
  • HTTPS, locked-down config, and cost-conscious Azure usage
