Week 27-30

Information Technology Project

State: In Progress ...

 

Week 26

Sunday, August 23rd

Venue: Brooklyn B Bagel Bakery & Cafe

Time: 6.00PM - 9.30PM

Since it was a weekend, I have planned to meet up with a friend from Computer Science to help me come up with the database variables needed to design the database. Since he just taken his database subject during his previous semester, it would be better for him to give me insights to other aspects that I might missed out on.

This is one of the many sketches we did for FYP database on that day.

Week 25

Tuesday, August 18^th

Venue: INTI College Block Y - Lvl 3 (Y303)

Time: 11:00AM – 12:00PM

Today Angga Rio decided to call for a discussion for building the interface design. Only Angga and I were present today as both of us are delegated to handle the outlook of this application. The existing interface was too simple and Johnathan advised us to look into some other features like slider buttons - swipe to execute, floating cards layout, etc. to give the application a more intricate design and professional feel.

We googled some tutorials and open source but the one that we thought that it might work is using Jade OO programming language. Sadly after a few tries, it failed to perform whatever it is supposed to do and we deemed Jade as incompatible with our AngularJS and ionic framework. For the next few days, we will still continue scouting around for other more compatible language/framework to link it with our existing interface.

Week 24

Friday, August 14^th

Time: 10:00AM – 11:00AM

Location: INTI College, Building A - Lvl 2 

Our team carried out a short discussion today so that we would have some leads to what we were supposed to do over this weekends.

Because…

I voiced out my concerns regarding the IT project documentation as there are quite a number of topics & subtopics to cover before it could be submitted as the final copy. Referring to our seniors’ documentations, we were far left behind. So eventually, we decided to pick up on things that can be done first.

Week 23

Checkpoint 2 -Thursday, August 6^th

Time: 10:00AM – 11:00AM

Location: INTI College, Building A - Lvl 3 (Meeting Room1)

UOW new semester had just commence and students had just come back after their semester break. As planned from week 14 during Checkpoint 1 that today we will be having our Checkpoint 2. We were ready with a static interface (no functions) to show Collexe this time around so that we can at least get a heads up on what they are actually looking for.
For today’s meeting, Ken and Kelvin were present.
After Angga Rio displayed the app, Ken advised that users should not have to click in for an overview but automatically display whatever that is pending straight on display.

Add in rule control coding to ensure that user remember to log out. Just in case if user forgot to log out from a session.

- Use generic terms so that various company types can use the application generally.

- Focus more on functionality and features for marks

Reminder:

• End of every week need to send email updating Ken & Cc Ms.Robina
• By Module2-Week6 everything should be finalized
• Dedicate week7 onwards for development

Week 20

Friday, July 17^th

Prior to my final examinations week.The first part of FYP documentation was submitted to Ms.Robina through e-mail.

I had my last exam paper on 10^th July. This week marks the first week of my semester break. After having a few days of rest, I decided to make some personal progress by picking up AngularJS will be the main building block for creating this IT Project. Within this timeframe, we were having constant discussion on the choices of technology/language that will be most suitable for building to give a more dynamic and professional outlook to the application.

I started off by going through the whole AngularJS tutorial that was on W3Schools - http://www.w3schools.com/angular/. I struggled at the beginning but then I got accustomed to the style real soon as I found it is just exactly like HTML but with its own attributes that extends HTML.

During that period, I browsed around to identify other existing mobile applications in the market e.g. TSheets: Time Tracking Software Simplified.
