Project: SOCareers

SOCareers is your ultimate companion to managing your professional connections and internship applications. Designed with School of Computing (SoC) students in mind, it is optimised for use via a Command Line Interface (CLI), enabling you to organise your information more efficiently than traditional Graphical User Interface (GUI) apps if you can type fast.

I have contributed to the project in the following ways:

Code

You can find a summary of all my code contributions in this RepoSense link!

1. Viewing a person’s contact
   • Implemented the abstract ViewCommand class to allow for further extension of the view command
   • Implemented the concrete ViewPersonCommand class to allow users to easily view one person’s contact at a time
2. Adding an internship to a company contact
   • Implemented the AddInternshipCommand class to add an internship to a specified company
3. Editing an existing internship in a company contact
   • Implemented the EditInternshipCommand class to keep information on internships up-to-date
   • Improved the abstraction and code quality of the EditCommandParser
4. Created efficient and effective test code for the classes I have implemented to ensure they function according to specifications

Documentation

User Guide (UG)

1. Added documentation for the view person, add internship and edit internship commands
