React compound interest calculator

2021-08-29

Before my first role, I found myself needing to create a React project to prove that I had what it takes.

I decided to create a compound interest calculator, because I enjoy saving money and watching it grow.

Technologies:

• ReactJS
• Typescript
• Bootstrap.css
• Netlify deployed with Github Actions

It features:

• Disallows illegal inputs: Only allows numbers in fields. Each field can have a range (ie. years is from 0-30).
• Updates results immediately: Uses an asycronous useEffect hook to update the result and graph each time the user changes something.
• Responsive design: Works and maintains high quality appearance on all browsers, devices, and screen sizes.
