Drifloon Database is a Pokedex app which pulls its data from PokeAPI. I built this project to be my own Living Dex checklist and database when the options available online didn't meet the requirements I was looking for. It has a lot of fun customization options that make this pokedex truly feel like its your own.
This project was also a chance to dive deep into React development and app design.
- Full Pokedex - the days of 30 open tabs has ended just because you were trying to learn the type, weaknesses, and locations of a single pokemon. Now it's all available in one spot!
- Customizable UI - set your favorite pokemon, base color, and choose dark or light modes (set to system by default) to truly customize your experience.
- Checklists!!! - my partner pokes fun at me for playing Spreadsheet: The Game whenever I start a new RPG. No longer will I need to start a new game by building an overly engineered Google Sheet to track encounters, variations caught, shinies, etc.
