Hello! My name is Tyler Beck.
I am a software developer, currently living in beautiful Ogden, Utah. I got my start in software development by attending two separate developer bootcamps. Since then, I have worked professionally as developer for five years. Two and half of those years were at CollegeNET in their web dev department and the other three years were at OldCastle Building Envelope as a software developer in their IT department. For more detail, feel free to check out my Linkedin.
As a professional, I believe hard work, honesty and continued education are paramount in ensuring any level of success. Furthermore, I believe that I have a responsibilty to keep learning and growing throughout my career so that I can always make a meaningful impact in any setting.
I have experience with a number of different technologies, but my preferred stack is .NET. Currently loving working with Blazor and .NET 8. The box below contains the technologies I have have the most meaningful experience with.
C#
.NET
Python
Javascript
SQL

Here's a list of things I've built for hobby, practice, and continued education over the years. They are listed below, more or less in the order that I completed them. Not only will it give you an idea of what I can do, It's fun for me to be able to look back and see the progress I've made.
A .NET 8 Blazor app, built to help my friends over at The Movie Draft Podcast create random selection orders with an interesting and easy to use UI that matches their brand.
Utilizing EF Core and a SQL database with code first migrations, the app is hosted with Azure app services and features full authentication, authorization, user roles and custom registration code functionality to restrict new user registrations.
A fun little game that challenges you to race against a timer and figure out which movie an actor has NOT appeared in. Built with .NET Blazor, the application consumes the TMDB api to provide actor and movie details, including images, in real time.
My goal was to showcase my abiltiy to consume an API and display information dynamically and interactively.
My mother and I play a game we call "Wordle Golf." Every day, we compare the number of guesses it takes to solve the puzzle. This is a website I cooked up to keep track of our scores. It's an MVC application on .NET 8, connected to a SQL database with Entity Framework. It features authentication and authorization, as well the abiltiy to send a text to the application to update your score, using Twilio.
This is a single page application built with HTML, CSS and vanilla Javascript. The goal was to create an interactive matching game with different difficulty modes, a running score tally and different messages displayed to the user depending on their score.
Feel free to give it a shot and see how well you know my favorite basketball team, the Utah Jazz!
This here is actually the very first portfolio worthy project I ever completed. It is a simple app that takes in some user input and calculates the total cost of a mock pizza deliver order. Built with plain old HTML, CSS and vanilla Javascript, this was the first application I built with any real substance and I'm still proud of it to this day.
Feel free to give it a shot and see what kind of combinations you can come up with!
