Built an open-source platform to keep users updated with Zimbabwe Gold (ZWG) exchange rates and to perform quick currency/gold conversions. The project combines a web UI and a lightweight API fed by a resilient scraper (switched to Puppeteer to avoid timeouts and blocking). I implemented data parsing and normalization, designed the frontend (HTML/CSS/JS) for conversions and display, and packaged the service for deployment with Docker Compose. The result is a simple, reliable site and API that serves up-to-date ZWG rates and conversion tools.
