lcatDB (Lake Champlain Anglers’ Temperature Database) was an online database and single page application (SPA) meant to provide a centralized means of recording, accessing, and analyzing vertical water temperature profiles to citizens of the Lake Champlain region. It was supported by the SUNY Plattsburgh Center for Earth & Environmental Science and the Lake Champlain Sea Grant. lcatDB was (what I consider to be) my first attempt at full stack software development. While the app never really took off and is no longer around today, I was able to demonstrate many of my strengths and learned several valuable lessons. This is a continuation of my last post where I discussed programs exclusively for macOS. The software here should be available on all platforms (Win/Mac/Linux). If it’s software that’s already been covered ad nauseam everywhere else or something I don’t use regularly, it’s probably not getting listed here. Happy Valentines Day. I’ve been trying to migrate from Forklift back to Finder since I’m not super happy with their progress and the issues that come with a non-native file manager, including but not limited to: You know those shitty tabloid articles you find on Google when you try to find software recommendations, all of them having the same 10 programs over and over? Yeah, this isn’t another one of those. These are all programs I’ve spent a good deal of time with and will be giving genuine opinions on. Let’s get to it.
