It features a plant directory and articles, built with a custom Next.js and AWS Amplify setup for administrative access and metadata control.

Midwest Radio is a mobile app built for iOS and Android to support local radio stations in the Midwest U.S. and Canada.

Due to its success, the app architecture has since been re-implemented for usage at other institutions.
