Hey, I'm Terence Chen AKA TC 👋
I'm a software developer student based in Christchurch, New Zealand, graduated from Whitecliffe. You can find me on various social media platforms below.
About Me
I started in 2020, like everyone else, had decided to shift careers. After working a couple of jobs I had settled for a forklift driving job for a few years after my first time studying science.
I had decided to go back to study and chose IT, not really knowing what I wanted. This decision came at a convenient time as I found out the NZ government were funding IT studies through TTAF program and gave it a go.
I have now graduated with my Bachelors and looking forward to seeing what this can lead to!

Projects
Card database website
A website built with Next.js, Node.js and MongoDB. Started as a website for the "MHA" card game where users could register and login, search the database for cards and build their decks, however within a few weeks we had to scale-down our project to meet the deadline. This meant the website is now only a card database with a search function and login functionalities.
Avalonia GUI for Card Searcher
A GUI interface for the Card Searcher program. This removes the dependency on Excel spreadsheets and uses MongoDB to store information. Work in Progress.
Card Searcher
A terminal program designed to search through an excel file for a card based on its card code or name. This was done with a Python library called Openpyxl and has limited editing capabilities.
C# Console card searcher
A C# version of the aforementioned "Card Searcher". This utilizes MongoDB to store the card's details and allows me to see if I have the card in my collection by entering it's name or card code.
Django portfolio website
Prior to making this website, I created a basic portfolio website using Django and Bootstrap, the main feature of this site was the capability for it to organize, the projects I entered into the SQLite database, into categories without my interference. This was my 2nd time creating a portfolio site and my first time hosting a website live. I used pythonanywhere to host the website.
Spotify Playlist Generator
This is a Python project that uses the Spotify API and Spotipy library to generate 2 different playlists. Calm and Upbeat. This organized my music library into the 2 playlists based on the "dancability" of the song.
