Short Explanation

This particular project was designed to help over 200 thousand junior high school students from South Sulawesi register for their local senior high school. This was a substantial project for me that successfully managed a large number of user requests.

Project Goals

The objective of this project is to provide information about PPDB (Penerimaan Peserta Didik Baru) for local high schools in South Sulawesi. The website should facilitate registration, generate proof of registration, and announce acceptance results. It should also be able to print a test card number for students registering via test, and display their grades. Additionally, the website will offer another entry method using geolocation, by calculating the radius from the student's house to the school location.

Lesson Learned

Through this comprehensive project, I gained significant knowledge as a DevOps engineer. I learned about scripting for server monitoring, data reporting, app deployment using CI/CD git, and server configuration with nginx, redis, mysql, and go. Additionally, as a front-end developer, I created pages for student acceptance receipts using Next.js with Tailwind CSS and Zustand state management.
