Project: NUSocials

NUSocials is a desktop address book application for university students who like to maintain a professional contact list. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 10 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Added the ability to tag additional information to an existing contact entry. (#35)
    • What it does: allows the user to tag additional information to an existing contact.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can tag important information to their own contacts for future references.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects the existing UI layout. It required an in-depth analysis of how the tagged information should be displayed alongside with their respective contacts.
  • New Feature: Added the ability to add events to the address book. (#64, #73, #82)
    • What it does: allows the user to add events and tag them to contacts that are participating.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can keep track of upcoming events they have with their contacts.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects the existing UI layout. It required an in-depth analysis of how the event information should be displayed alongside the contact list in the application.
  • New Feature: Added the ability to cancel events and delete them from the address book. (#76)
    • What it does: allows the user to cancel events and delete them from the address book.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can remove unwanted events and reduce clutter in their event list.
    • Highlights: This enhancement requires an in-depth analysis of how the UI layout of the event list should be altered after an event has been deleted.
