FREE STATE ARMORY

Free State Armory is a website that I designed for a gun shop to showcase their inventory of classic, antique handguns and pistols as well as current semi-automatic pistols. There was a ton of research that went into this project from case studies to user profiling, flow charts for user logins, shopping cart systems as well as overall functionality which provided a truly in-depth analysis of my target market. All of this research lasted over an eleven week period and was done prior to writing one line of code.

I wanted to showcase some design talents as well as some programming talents and get to the point of utilizing MySQL and a little PHP in order to take advantage of a database for the inventory. Although the site you see here now is static in that there is no shopping cart feature rest assured that much of the code has been written and will be launched sometime in the future.

For me that project was definitely the one I anticipated the most. Coming from a programming background from other schools I was very excited to delve into PHP and MySQL and what I learned was extremely valuable.
