Projects

Azure AD B2C User Manager - https://github.com/twinsley/AADB2CExtensionModifier

This project is a simple .NET WPF app intended to help with one of the significant pain points of AAD B2C / Entra External ID. It’s common to use extension attributes on users, and the only way to update those attributes natively is to use the Graph API. This app provides an easy to use GUI to look up a user by either email or UPN and view or update both standard user attributes and the extension attributes.

AirportConditions.com - https://github.com/twinsley/AirportAPI

This project is a .NET API backend serving a simple HTML/CSS/vanilla JS frontend. It collects weather readings from Arduino based sensors at a local airport and stores them in a MySQL database, then displays the current conditions and wind direction relative to the runway.

Resume Website - https://github.com/twinsley/Cloud_Resume

This is an Azure hosted resume along the lines of the Cloud Resume challenge from https://cloudresumechallenge.dev. It uses a HTML/CSS/JS version of my resume as a static site stored in Azure Blob Storage and served through an Azure CDN, along with a C# Azure Function and Azure Table storage as the backend for the visitor counter. All infrastructure for it is managed through Terraform, and the code is built and deployed through Azure Devops Pipelines.
