Project: PoochPlanner

PoochPlanner is a desktop application to track details of various groups (person, supplier, maintainer, staff) that dog cafe owners have to regularly interact with. The app is optimised for use using Command Line Interface (CLI) while still encompassing a user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI).

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Help Command - Added the ability to give help to users regarding commands.
    • What it does: Returns the user a help window with the correct command format for a specific command or a general help window.
    • Justification: This feature is crucial for first time users who are unfamiliar to the commands.
  • New Feature: Note Command - Added the ability to add notes to contacts.
    • What it does: Adds notes to contacts. These notes have an optional deadline field.
