NFL Data API Project
Welcome to my NFL Data API project! This application showcases my skills in building modern web applications with real-time data processing and visualization.
As a passionate developer with a love for both football and clean, efficient code, I created this platform to demonstrate my ability to work with complex datasets and present them in an intuitive, user-friendly interface.
Please note that most of the advanced features of this application require an authenticated user account. I will happily provide a full access account to hiring managers and recruiters who are interested in seeing the full capabilities of the application.
