Chronicles from our peeps.
There are many joys in life that bring meaning to the frustration that precedes them. Joys like the sweet relief of seeing actual running code. This week, as that little introduction might have implied, went smoothly, perhaps the universe’s way of making up for last week. It was my third Read more…
This week has been anything but productive. I have barely made any progress to the react-admin system and I keep coming across hurdles due to my lack of knowledge. At the start of the week I redid the user guide for my main application to provide a more concise instruction Read more…
Time runs faster in Aeste, between learning how to use new tools, reading documentation of new libraries, and the seemingly endless process of research that proceeds every step you’re taking in a project, it’s often hard to catch up with time. My second week in here wasn’t very different than Read more…
I have been involved with generating the report cards for participants of a competition. The report card will contain the candidate’s details as well as graphs that gives them a sense of how well they did in their venue, in their category, or among those who play the same instrument. Read more…
With Electron finally up and Running I was told to get the Cordova App ready as well so I used a Plugin to add Cordova to my Vue project and managed to build an Android App that Emulated successfully. The Android App performed as expected except one minor problem. The Read more…
This week, I continued working on the report card which is to be sent to the participants. I used a CSV parser to parse the spreadsheet that holds the competition data. Dr Shawn has advised me to use a template to render the contents of the PDF in order to Read more…
I had expected plenty to go wrong on my first week; felt under prepared and built a hundred scenarios of how it might go wrong. However, it was quite the opposite, the place was very warm and welcoming, and I cannot recall a period in which I learned this number Read more…
This week was the first in a long while where the work and stress level were relatively on the more manageable side of things. Finalization was done for the application by making last minute cosmetic changes like adjusting the application icon and changing the application name etc. Electron was successfully Read more…
A bug has arose from testing the code for computing the final results of the contestants. It had to do with not being able to receive all the documents in the database. After investigating it further, I discovered there was a default limit set on the number of documents returned. Read more…
This week was spent entirely on debugging and testing to ensure that the final interface would be as seamless and optimal as possible. While writing my code I had overlooked some finer details with regards to how the data would change between interfaces when going from one role to another Read more…
