Background
(What made you decide to build this particular app? What inspired you?)
I've been a feature phone user for a long time. It was fun to develop buttons that insert a different letter based on the frequency of clicks.
How I built it
Used Angular for this project, after a long time.
This is my first time using DigitalOcean. Deployed it as a
stati site.
(How did you utilize DigitalOcean’s App Platform? Did you learn something new along the way? Pick up a new skill?)
Additional Resources/Info
This video was quite useful to deploy the angular app.
