01. About Me ━━━━


Hi, Welcome to my web portfolio, My name is Leon and I am a final year undergrad computer science student studying at Liverpool Hope University. I joined Hope in 2022, after spending 5 years working in Quality Control / Quality Assurance. My passion for programming and website development, was introduced to me by a colleague while in full time work. I knew I wanted to study the field further and therefore enrolled at University, I have loved studying Computer Science ever since.

Today, I am currently working towards finishing my degree as I am in my final year of study.

02. Projects ━━━━


Graphics Program with OpenGL


For a University submission, I was tasked with making an interactive graphics program using C++ and OpenGL. This particular program rendered two shapes, a cube and a pyramid, allowing the user to manipulate the shapes along the X, Y, and Z axis.

It also allowed the user to access wireframe mode which shows the vertices of each shape.


Command Line Interface Library Management System


Again, for a University submission, my task here was to create an interactive program using C++. For this program, I created a command line interface application for logging books and/or articles in a Library type system.

In order to begin using the system, the user must either create an account, or log in to their existing account. Account details are stored using file reading and writing. From here the user can add book names and publication year to the system, once added these books can be viewed. The program uses a constant loop allowing the user to either go back and make a different choice, or to exit out of the program whenever the user wishes to.
