information on this version of vv corner
This is the first release of vv corner! After many months, it is finally live. What started as a clunky Java project parsing through information stored on CSVs is now a fully realized website. The original purpose of that early build was to help me decide which record to buy when I had the chance. More than just spinning a wheel, I wanted to include price-based probability - the cheaper the record, the more likely it was to be selected. However, loading up my IDE every time and waiting for it to compile just to use my tool was getting annoying. For my own sanity, I knew the project eventually needed to outgrow its original form.
It was a challenge finding the best way to complete this project. Frameworks, languages, and databases were constantly changing as I further refined and understood the needs of the tool I wanted to create. However, I loved every step. Building something centered around my interests is hardly work to me; it may be challenging, but it never feels like a chore. Through continuous learning, I finally reached the point where I could build the website as it stands today. This is the third and final iteration, and the one I am proudest of.
I am happy it is finally out there. Thank you for checking it out.
