Week 5

 

Week 5 Highlights (29/05/2024 - 04/06/2024)


Collaboration and Iteration:

  • I actively collaborated with my mentor during our meeting, discussing project details and receiving valuable guidance.
  • Responded diligently to reviewers' comments on Pull Request (PR) #20333 (M1.1). I addressed all their concerns in a dedicated commit on June 1st.

Addressing Challenges:

  • Encountered failing tests on a M1.1PR. However, I demonstrated my debugging skills by fixing the tests and addressing related comments on June 2nd.

M1.2 Progress:

  • Following research and evaluation, I identified chartcss as the optimal library for implementing the bar charts in M1.2. This decision was based on its performance and integration capabilities.
  • On May 30th, I successfully updated the bar chart component logic to utilize the chosen library.
  • I continuously refined the UI of the updated implementation with bar charts, making progress throughout the week (May 31st - June 3rd).

Wrapping Up the Week:

  • My persistence paid off! After resolving all the issues encountered during the week, I proudly created a new PR on June 4th. This signifies a major accomplishment and brings me closer to completing Milestone 1.2.

Looking Ahead:

  • I'm excited to see the progress on my newly submitted PR and address any further feedback received.
  • With M1.2 nearing completion, I'll be focusing on finalizing the automation for updating user statistics and potentially start planning for the next set of milestones.

Overall, Week 5 was a productive one, marked by effective collaboration, problem-solving, and significant advancement towards project goals.
