Skills:
Poetry web application developed as a term project for a programming course. The application is a tool for the comparative study of poem editions and is written in PHP, relying heavily on PHP’s XMLReader module, a stream-based XML parser. Comparative stanzas are retrieved on-the-fly using AJAX. For more information, read the full documentation.
