Week 13

 

Week 13 (24/07/2024 - 30/07/2024)


This week marked the end of my summer vacation as I returned to my university after two days of travel. I also took some time to recover from an illness before diving back into my work on GSoC. My primary focus was addressing and resolving comments on the M2.3 PR. After making the necessary updates, I received approval from both the LaCE Frontend and Acceptance Tests reviewers, and I plan to merge the PR by tomorrow.

One key challenge I encountered was related to site analytics, specifically tracking clicks on the volunteer link in the footer. The issue arose because the anchor link for "Donate or Volunteer today!" is embedded in an I18N key rather than being a standard Angular anchor tag. This makes it impossible to add a function that triggers an event in Google Analytics (GA) when the volunteer link is clicked. Additionally, we cannot modify the I18N key to use Angular code because the sentence structure for "Donate or Volunteer today!" varies across different languages.

After discussing the issue with my mentor, we concluded that it's not feasible to implement tracking in the current setup. We've decided to raise this topic in an upcoming meeting with the Team Lead to explore potential solutions.

Week 15

   Week 15 (07/08/2024 - 13/08/2024) This week, I successfully merged the M2.3 PR, marking a significant milestone in the project. In addition, I opened and merged a PR that updated the lighthouse configuration in the CI pipeline, setting the minimum scores to 1.0 for the pages I redesigned. This ensures that the pages consistently achieve a perfect score in lighthouse tests. We also had a PM demo for Milestone 2, during which I received valuable feedback on areas for improvement. I promptly incorporated these suggestions and opened a PR addressing the necessary changes. I aim to have this PR merged within the next two days, further refining the redesigned pages based on the feedback received.

Week 9

  Week 9 Highlights (26/06/2024 - 02/07/2024) Week 9: Overcoming Challenges and Optimizing Performance This week was focused on resolving critical issues and optimizing project assets. I successfully addressed all bugs identified during the M1 PM demo, resulting in the creation and merging of M1.7(a) PR. This accomplishment brings me closer to reaching the Milestone 1 . A significant challenge arose due to increased image size within the assets/images folder, which exceeded the 32MB limit for release. To resolve this, I collaborated with the server and org admins to optimize the release candidate size. Their support was instrumental in overcoming this obstacle. By optimizing image sizes and implementing the necessary changes, I ensured that the project remains on track for the upcoming release.
