Hi, Hello, Welcome!

I'm Angel Piscola. I'm a Senior Software Engineer at Honeybee Health! Previously, I was at Role, Inc making https://www.playrole.com. I've got 5 years experience working on customer-centric Virtual TableTops, and another 4 years on top of that working in a variety of industries, including ecommerce, b2b saas, and fintech at American Express!

⚡ Fast Facts

• 👨‍💻 I love TypeScript and React
• 💻 I code on Mac and Linux
• 🔎 Looking at AI/ML with great interest! (Check out my winning AI Hackathon Project below)
• 🎲 I love tabletop gaming & board games
• 🎮 Currenty playing through Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

📁 Open Source Projects

These are projects I've started or contributed to that hold a special place in my heart.

Raid.Exchange

Built on Next.js & Supabase, raid.exchange helps Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players organize and plan their pokemon raids!

Mystery Express, Co

Built on Next.js & OpenAI's ChatGPT API, Mystery Express Co is a ChatGPT driven murder mystery game in the form of a detective's journal. A real life murder has occured on a murder mystery train, and it's up to the players to investigate various clues and interview suspects in order to find the perpetrator and bring them to justice!

The github readme has a lengthier write-up but it was a lot of fun integrating with OpenAI's API and figuring out the nuances of ChatGPT!

This project won First Overall at Major League Hacking's AI Hackfest on May 14th, 2023.

The Server should separate the counselor entries into objects before saving to the database.

Continuing from #8, we should split the counselor entries into objects with keys before saving to the lowdb. This will make instantiating the Practitioner class on the client side much cleaner, and will pave the way for category based searching and contact card UI (#5 and #1)

Migrate from lowdb to dynamoDB

For persisting data across now deployments, I'll use the free tier of AWS's DynamoDB.

Add a README

Switch from now.sh to a different hosting provider

Now.sh has gone fully "Serverless" and now limits the total number of invocations a server route can have, to the best of my knowledge. Right now it looks like the best course of action would be to stick this project on a digital ocean droplet I have running.

If I'm misunderstanding anything about now's new architecture please let me know!

Add a refresh button that checks if the ftp server has a file that's newer than the one in the database

Probably right before or after the "Last updated" part of the title.

The button should make a request to our server which compares the current timestamp in the db vs. the latest timestamp from the ftp server.

Implement elasticsearch

Zip code needs to be separated from the state

Just a minor bug with the way we display our addresses!

Create a roadmap.

It is usually a good idea to articulate the direction in which one wants to proceed to make it more transparent for contributors and for themselves as well, really.
Things that could be considered:

• Final goal
• List of desired features in the order of importance
• Maybe even a mockup or two?

This is not a definitive list, and not a call for action. Just a suggestion.

Server should use Typescript

ts-node + @babel/register + @babel/polyfill can be used for dev, and we can transpile w/ tsc/babel to run our prod server from build/

Consider agnostic package.json scripts implementation

I am using npm instead of yarn and it a real pain to go into the build scripts and change them to npm run here. Why not use something that is not dependant on the build tool?

I found this article useful.

Here is a suggestion: yarpm

Now deployment has error when starting the server

Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '.data/db.json'

Only started happening after the switch to server side typescript. Need to figure out why...

Process data in order to implement category based searching

Blocks #1.

Data needs to be processed more. Instead of passing the array of values directly through, ideally each counselor collection needs to be converted to an object. Similar fields should be combined by type (E.g. Mailing address fields / practice address fields.

Mailing Address: 6 fields
Number: 2 fields
Practice Address: 5 fields

If we can combine these together, we can display them better.

Convert from table to contact-card format

This will rely on search capabilities

Styling

The site is barebones. Make it look better so it's easier to look at and pleasant to use!
