Currently I am a senior Fullstack Engineer at Mighty. We build tools to allow kids to become entrepreneurs, by designing their own websites and products.

Projects

Flower Lad

Flower Lad was developed in unity for Game Development I at Stevens. The game is about a small robot listening to poetry and planting flowers. Flower Lad utilizes c# scripts to grow dynamic fields of flowers which are able to interbreed and mutate. It was also used to tell the player nice little poems.

Poetry Bot

The Poetry Bot was created using vanilla javascript and python. Using Markov chains, the bot creates poetry from nearly 9 million lines of poetry, courtesy of Project Gutenberg.

My name is George Beckert, I am currently working as a software developer at Mighty. I develop full stack web apps, with a focus on the front-end. I am the most comfortable with Node.js and React, but I am always pursuing new technologies to become a more well rounded and current developer. When I am not programming I love to play guitar and paint. I strive to surround myself with art and music, and to absorb as much as I can from the people and the world around me. I think of programming as a blank canvas, and the more I learn from other people and other disciplines, the more ideas I am able to implement.
