The Game Awards Predictions
This project was a website I built for a single purpose: For my friends and I to make predictions about the winners of The Game Awards, which takes place every December.
Technologies
SvelteKit, Tailwind, Postgres, Typescript
Backstory
Every year, I set up a poll for my friends and I to make predictions for the winners of The Game Awards. It started as a shared Google Sheet, then moved to Google Forms, but for 2023 I wanted to work on a personal project and decided to build a site where we could vote, view each other’s scores, and view historical results.
Architecture
The application was build using SvelteKit and a Vercel-managed Postgres database. The user enters their name, makes their choices for each category, and after clicking submit their votes are stored in the Postgres database where they can be collected for scoring and retrieved if the user wants to view their choices later.
