Project: TAvigator

TAvigator aims to provide a one-stop platform for tutors to keep track of the work submission and attendance of each student via a contact management application. Allowing tutors to manage their tutorial groups with ease, from marking attendance to tracking individual work submissions.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Added the ability to store multiple addressbooks for different courses through the course command.
    • What it does: Allows users to have independent addressbooks for different courses.
    • Justification: This feature improves the organisation of student contacts for tutors tutoring for multiple classes.
    • Highlights: This feature minimized the impact on existing commands as from each command’s point of view, the getAddressBook function will simply return the currently selected addressbook. This feature, however, required rewriting some parts of the existing storage code to allow the serializing and deserialzing the new internal state.
  • New Enhancement: Added FilterSettings to UserPrefs to allow for storing of multiple predicates.
    • What it does: Allows multiple predicates to be applied to the current list.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product by allowing the user to have more flexibility in what they want to view instead of only by a single predicate.
    • Highlights: The implementation of the command was relatively straightforward as it was quite similar to how GuiSettings was implemented and existing interfaces had to be updated with the new functions. The only difficulty encountered was how to store the predicates inside the user preference file. To accomplish this, a SerializablePredicate class was created.
  • New Enhancement: Improved the UI of the app
    • What it does: Allows the user to see what course is selected and the status on number of students.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product intuitiveness as it provides users with a clearer and more user-friendly interface. By displaying the selected course and the real-time status of the number of students, users can quickly and easily access important information at a glance.
