Side projects

Mini projects, just for fun

Small builds I make for practice and for the fun of it, usually from frontend challenge briefs. Each one is a single page.

Gamer Sign-Up Form
A sign-up form for NEONCORE, a made-up competitive-gaming network, with live validation, a password strength meter, and loading and success states.
Bonus: I went a bit overboard and added four switchable themes (Cyberpunk Pink, Yellow, Blue and a Bond wild card).
