Project: FriendDex

FriendDex is a relationship management tool that empowers users to maintain long-lasting relationships with their friends, without compromising other aspects of their lives. It is a Java GUI application created with JavaFX and users mainly interact with it by typing commands.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Added the Birthday Field into Person.
    • Justification: This feature allows the user to put in their friends’ birthdays, so they do not have to remember.
  • New Feature: Added Groups into FriendDex along with the UI associated with FriendDex.
    • Justification: This feature allows the user to organise their friends into specified groups
    • Highlights: It was challenging trying to tie together the Group and Person class together due to the many moving parts in Person. Additionally, creating the UI for the Group List Panel which shows all the groups in FriendDex was challenging when it comes to selecting the list cell corresponding to a group whenever a command is involved with that group.
  • New Feature: Added Debt Feature into FriendDex
    • Justification: This feature allows the user to track an individual friend’s debt that they owe to the user or that the user owes them.
    • Highlights: Debt value was initially stored as a Float which was an error when the precision gets high enough. Changing it into Java’s BigDecimal fixes the issues like loss of significance.
