In Quira Quest 15, I embarked on an exciting journey to build a stylish calculator using Cyclops UI. This quest was not just about creating a functional calculator but also about leveraging modern technologies to streamline deployment and management.
Technologies Used
Cyclops UI: A powerful tool for managing and deploying applications with a user-friendly interface. It simplified the deployment process and provided easy access to monitoring and management features.
Docker: Employed for containerizing the application. Docker allowed me to package the calculator with its dependencies into a portable image, ensuring consistency across different environments.
Kubernetes: Used for orchestrating the deployment. Kubernetes managed the deployment, scaling, and monitoring of the containerized application, providing robust orchestration and high availability.
HTML, CSS, and JavaScript: For building the calculator's user interface. The calculator was styled to mimic the classic Casio FX-82MS, using CSS for a visually appealing design and JavaScript for the functional logic.
Lessons Learned
Integration Challenges: Integrating Docker and Kubernetes with Cyclops UI presented challenges, particularly with port forwarding and image deployment. Resolving these issues enhanced my understanding of Kubernetes networking and Cyclops configuration.
User Interface Design: Crafting a user interface that replicates the look and feel of a classic calculator while ensuring functionality was both challenging and rewarding. It honed my front-end development skills.
Troubleshooting and Debugging: Encountering issues with deployment and containerization taught me valuable troubleshooting techniques and the importance of thorough testing before deployment.
In summary, Quira Quest 15 was a valuable learning experience, combining modern technologies with classic design principles to create a sleek and functional calculator.
