Project: InTrack

InTrack is a desktop application that helps Computer Science students who are applying for multiple internships to keep track of their progress and deadlines across these applications. It is optimised for use via a Command Line Interface (CLI) while still having the benefits of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 10 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • Code contributed: My contributions can be accessed via RepoSense link

  • New Feature: status command(PR:#63)
    • What it does: Allows users to update the status of an internship between 3 possible states, namely Offered, Progress and Rejected.
    • Justification: This is to allow users to monitor the progress of their internship applications and allow easier filtering of them later on.
    • Highlights: This is one of the first newly added commands in Intrack, and requires an in-depth understanding of the application parses user inputs and run commands. Many hours were required to trace through the codebase in order to understand how all the objects interact and couple with one another.
  • New Feature: remark command(PR:#79)
    • What it does: Allows users to add a remark or note to an internship application.
    • Justification: This is to allow users to add a note to an internship application, be it something to reflect on their experience in the interview or to note something important for that application.
    • Highlights: This is one of the easier commands to add as it follows the format of status command.
  • New Feature: sort command(PR:#101)
    • What it does: Allows users to sort the list of internship applications by the earliest upcoming task of each internship.
    • Justification: This is to allow users to sort the internships to improve user experience, for example to see what internship interview is coming up.
    • Highlights: This command is slightly harder to implement as it requires one of have a deeper understanding of how the different classes couples with another. this command is further enhanced later on by my teammates and is able to sort internships by their salaries as well.
  • New Feature: addtag command(PR:#118)
    • What it does: Allows users to add one or more tags to an internship application.
    • Justification: This is to enhance user experience, as they are able to use tags to remind themselves of key attributes of an internship application.
    • Highlights: Previously, there is no way for the user to add a tag to an existing application without overriding the old tags, so this enhances the user experience.
  • New Feature: deltag command(PR:#118)
    • What it does: Allows users to delete one or more existing tags from an internship application.
    • Justification: This is to allow users to delete tags they no longer want or need from applications.
  • Contributions to team-based tasks:
    • Ideation for user stories and features.
    • Created Milestone v1.1 and created some issues for the team.
    • Created the tags to be used for labelling issues.
    • Helped to write some parts of the demo UG including taking screenshots of application.
  • Reviewing contributions:
  • Documentation:
    • User Guide:
      • Added documentation for the features status, remark, sort, addtag and deltag.
      • Wrote some notes for the features listed.
    • Developer Guide:
      • Wrote the documentation for remark command.
      • Provided sequence diagrams and activity diagrams for better understanding of the command’s implementation.
      • Wrote some parts of the user stories.
