SKYE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT TEAM

The Skye Team’s summary covering their work on the Highest Good Network software was managed by Deepthi Arcot Subramanyam (Data Analyst) and Luis Arevalo (Software Engineer) and the team includes Angela Cheng (Full Stack Developer), Abi Liu (Software Developer), Laura Cohen (Software Engineer), Sai Preetham Dongari (Full Stack Developer), Yao Wang (Software Engineer), and Zhimin Liang (Full Stack Developer). The Highest Good Network software supports designing global-sustainability systems, social architecture, construction, production, and maintenance processes. This week, Abi collaborated with teammates to discuss progress updates and improve tracking of ongoing work. They participated in a peer programming session with Denish to help him understand the backend code more effectively. Additionally, Abi continued work on refining a query, facing some challenges in aggregating data accurately to meet specified requirements. Laura worked on the permission change modal by incorporating Reactstrap for styling consistency and adding React hooks to manage state and improve performance. She reviewed code across the HighestGoodNetworkApp to identify elements relevant to the modal, aligning all styling choices with the existing design for a cohesive user interface. Angela contributed to the HGN Software Development project, concentrating on pull request feedback related to email handling improvements. Their efforts are part of a broader initiative focused on designing global-sustainability systems, ensuring that all components are not only functional but also environmentally responsible. She also analyzed feedback to determine effective code modification and debugging strategies, and began implementing changes to combine messages with a BCC approach to address email sending limitations, planning to continue debugging. Yao progressed on the LinkedIn poster by adjusting the page layout and integrating LinkedIn’s API to automate posts, though he encountered 404 and 401 error codes. Testing the API in Postman confirmed its functionality, leading Yao to troubleshoot the backend code to resolve these errors. Sai Preetham focused on multiple tasks within the HGN Software Development project. He worked on integrating a “Reminder to Save Changes” modal on the permissions management page, ensuring it was centered and responsive on smaller screens, and adjusted the green popup notification to display only once after updating permissions. He then managed merge conflicts related to this feature, all while designing global-sustainability systems to enhance the overall impact of the project. He also began addressing a new task involving a name overflow issue on the dashboard, where longer names exceed the designated character limit and are trimmed. Finally, he contributed to the weekly summary and Dropbox updates for Week 12. Zhimin joined the Development Team, reviewed documentation to understand task requirements, and claimed the YouTube auto-poster project, studying relevant documents and task specifics. She researched YouTube auto-poster functionality, setting up the necessary account and authorization through documents and setup videos. See below for the team’s work.
