Chronicles from our peeps.
This week, I worked on something quite new to me: making the admin interface mobile-friendly. The project was originally built purely for desktop, so updating it for smaller screens felt challenging, but also a really exciting learning opportunity. Turning Desktop Tables Into Mobile-Friendly Lists The first step was replacing Datagrid Read more
This week was a little different. I took a few days off to travel to Indonesia for a university programme, so I wasn’t around my laptop as much as usual. But once I got back, I tried my best to quickly get back into the flow and pick up where Read more
This week felt like a steady mix of learning, fixing, and just trying to understand things properly. I’m still getting used to how everything connects in the system, but each small improvement made the bigger picture a little clearer. Making Sorting Actually Work I spent the first part of the Read more
If last week felt like a wake-up call, then this week felt like learning how to walk all over again. I spent most of it digging into things I thought I already understood — only to discover that the more I explored, the more questions I had. It was challenging, Read more
This week was a humbling one. Since most of my Flutter front-end tasks were wrapping up, my supervisor decided it was time for me to try something new, the React Admin project, which uses CouchDB as its backend. It sounded exciting at first, but once I actually sat down to Read more
This week was a mix of debugging déjà vu, small victories, and quiet “aha” moments, the kind where you realize maybe, just maybe, you’re starting to understand how things actually work. I spent most of it cleaning up old code, fixing a few persistent bugs, and thinking about what I Read more
Another busy week — Week 13 was all about addressing long-standing bugs, improving stability, and preparing for yet another live event. This time, I tackled issues ranging from JWT key retrieval to stubborn gesture conflicts that made certain UI elements unresponsive after long-presses, all while going through yet another live Read more
Time really flies, and I’m already at Week 12. This round, I focused on refining the QR scanner fixes implemented during the event, improving test coverage across modules, and experimenting with how the Gemini API responds to different error scenarios. Polishing the QR Scanner Fix Last week’s live event fix Read more
This week was all about two things: expanding test coverage across different roles and finally figuring out what’s been going wrong with the QR scanner. Both turned out to be pretty eye-opening in their own ways. Expanding Test Coverage I kicked off the week by writing more tests, this time Read more
This week brought two major milestones: evolving our reactive UI system from basic polling to real-time change notifications, and tackling a tricky QR code authentication issue during a live event that taught me valuable lessons about debugging and secret key handling. Moving Beyond Polling When I first added reactive UI Read more
