Project: Lifebook

Lifebook is a desktop task management application used for teaching Software Engineering principles. 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.

  • Link Feature: Added the ability to add a link to a task. (Pull requests #86, #100)
    • What it does: allows the user to add a meeting link or collaborative link to a task.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because finding Zoom links or Google Drive links can be tedious for the users and the app should provide a convenient way for the users to find the links easily.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects the model of the task. The implementation was quite challenging as UI matters must also be taken into consideration.
  • Edit Task Feature: Added the ability to edit the properties of a task. (Pull request #135)
    • What it does: allows the user to edit the properties of a todo or an event.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can make mistake when typing the properties of a task and the app should provide a convenient way for the users to edit them.
    • Highlights: This enhancement does not affect other commands because it is independent from other commands.
