Jenny Lin - Project Portfolio Page for traKCAL

Overview

• traKCAL is a desktop application for managing calorie intake, optimized for use via Command Line Interface (CLI) whilst retaining the benefits of a Graphical User Interface (GUI). traKCAL can manage your activities faster than traditional GUI applications.

Enhancements implemented

• I implemented the user profile and shortcut enhancements. For user profile, traKCAL automatically asks for a new user profile if it does not detect one and deletes the user profile if is is unreadable.

Here are some of their commands for user profile and shortcut:

• user c/ to create a new user profile. At the same time, it also
  • calculates bmi
  • calculates recommended calories
  • calculates calories based on weight goal
• user e/ to edit 1 or more sections of the user profile.
• user l/ to list out the current user profile.
• createSet to create a shortcut with 1 or more activity.
• addSet to add all the entries within the shortcut to the current day’s list.

Justifications: user profile feature gives the user a clear idea of their calorie journey. It also links to other features like graphs in traKCAL. shortcut feature reduces user fatigue by offering a quick way to add in entries often repeated into the activity list.

Contributions to User Guide

• I contributed to section 2 (user profile), section 3 (shortcut) in the user profile as well as overall formatting of the User Guide.

Contributions to the Developer Guide

• I contributed to the user profile and shortcut sections in Section 3, Section 4 and Manually Testing, including the UML diagrams. Additionally, I formatted the DG and added in missing components flagged out in feedbacks from past DG submissions.

Contributions to team-based tasks

• I took part in brain storming user stories.

Review/mentoring contributions

• I reviewed 25 PR from the team.

Contributions beyond the project team
