Project: FlashBack
FlashBack is a desktop flashcard application written in around 10kLoC of Java. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX.
Given below are my contributions to the project.
- Contributed Code: RepoSense
- Enhanced Add Feature
- What it does previously: Allows the user to add a person in AddressBook.
- What it does now: Allows the user to add a flashcard into FlashBack.
- Justification: Clearly, this facilitates the whole application.
- Highlights: This enhancement requires having a new standard prefix set, thus setting the tone for other command modifications. Implementation was challenging as refactoring work to test cases was arduous.
- Sort Feature: Added the ability to sort flashcards by either question or priority
- What it does: Allows the user to sort flashcards according to a specified order (e.g. ascending question, descending priority), FlashBack displays the sorted flashcards list.
- Justification: Alphabetical sorting of questions allow user to trace questions naturally, while sort-by-priority helps the user to decide which flashcard needs more attention.
- Highlights: Implementation was made difficult as the sorting options need to be defined in an enum, together with some parsing methods.
- Refactoring:
- Refactored the AB-3 codebase with new classes and conditions to suit the purpose of FlashBack. More specifically, the model component was overhauled.#51
- Project Management:
- Taken main responsibility for creating, managing team repo, merging pull requests and setting issues, milestones as well as settling conflicts.
