My Projects

Yu-Gi-Oh Card Maker

This was a fun project. Being a Yu-Gi-Oh! fan myself, I found the process of creating a card very difficult, as the websites available for this purpose are layered with ads and lack certain functionalities. So... I decided to create my own Yu-Gi-Oh! card maker using Angular. This card maker uses the highest quality graphics and has several built-in quality of life adjustments, making the creation process smooth and seamless.

Journey:

One of my goals here was to use high-quality images, since I found it weird how the competitors used low-quality images. So, I first downloaded high-quality images and, using ngModels, created an overlay function where multiple active sliders would determine which image is displayed on top of the others. Level, Attribute, and Card Types would then naturally build the card itself. Simple paragraph tags were used for the Card Title and Card Effect text, styled exactly like their real-life counterparts using CSS. As a fan of Yu-Gi-Oh, I made it my goal to make these cards pixel-perfect. After finishing the card maker, I created a login function where users could log in by storing their information in SQL, allowing them to save the cards they created. Lastly, I created a simple image generator to compile the card and download it as a high-quality .png.
