From the age of 12, Coco has been making websites with HTML. That turned into a career in software quality assurance test automation across every part of the SDLC: APIs, data pipelines, and front-end web applications. Though Coco is now a full-time technical writer, they still love to program. Here are some of the code projects Coco has made and been a part of.

GitHub projects

Besides full-time work in internal organizations’ repositories for the last eight years, Coco has created a few projects of her own along the way.

Counterpoint

Counterpoint is a downloadable word-counting local Vue.js/HTML application for writers. Within a couple of minutes, anyone can set up Counterpoint on their computer and have a totally private word count app right in their browser. Click here to visit the repo

GetInsight

GetInsight is a series of handy Jupyter notebooks that let anyone quickly get the latest Mars Insight Weather Data from the NASA Insight API using Python. Users can export old NASA data into Excel sheets as data samples for any data project. Click here to visit the repo

dbt Test Examples

Back in 2021, Coco wrote a series of helpful dbt test examples, since there weren’t a lot of them online at the time. This helped her train colleagues and share what she learned, so others could use it as a resource. Click here to visit the repo

Tech talks

In October 2022 at dbt’s Coalesce conference, Coco gave a 30 minute talk on how dbt can be used at the enterprise level, based on their experience as a Data Quality Engineer at WEX, Inc. Check it out ⬇️
