I designed and developed a website using Google Sites for a gardening cooperative based in Latvia. The website serves as an informational hub for members and visitors, showcasing the cooperative`s services, resources, and events. I focused on creating a user-friendly interface with a clean design that highlights the cooperative`s mission and encourages community engagement. Given the presence of many older members, I ensured the site was simple and intuitive, with easy navigation to make it accessible for all users.

This website was built using Next.js and the Bulma framework, and deployed using Vercel. The website features a responsive design, a dark mode toggle, and a contact form. The projects section showcases a selection of my work, with detailed descriptions, images, and links to the live websites and source code. The website also includes a fixed navbar that appears when scrolling up, and a mobile-friendly menu that opens and closes when the burger icon is clicked.

I developed a mobile recipe application called “Kitchen Co-Pilot” to address the issue of food waste and simplify meal planning.
The app suggests personalized meal ideas based on ingredients entered by the user, with a priority on those nearing their expiration date to encourage timely usage. Built using Expo and React Native for a seamless cross-platform experience, the app uses Supabase for secure data storage and real-time updates, and external recipe APIs to deliver a wide variety of meal options.

This project focused on designing and prototyping a new student guide for the university. A key requirement was adhering to the university`s branding guidelines, ensuring visual consistency with existing university websites through the use of the official color scheme and fonts. The design process, thoroughly documented in a report, encompassed defining the guide`s concept, target audience (including detailed user personas and scenarios), and a complete application design with wireframes and a navigation map, all justified by established design principles. The interactive prototype, developed using HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript, demonstrated the guide`s core features, multimedia integration, and navigation. The project also contained a comprehensive usability testing plan and report, along with accurate sourcing of all media and external libraries used. The final grade was based on the report`s quality and structure, the prototype`s effective use of multimedia and technical proficiency, and the overall design`s success in meeting the needs of new students.
