Project: LoyaltyLift

LoyaltyLift is a desktop application for small business owners to manage customers and their orders to boost customer satisfaction and retention rate. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 10 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Model: Created the model, UI, and initial test cases for Orders (#30, #36, #44)

  • New Feature: Setting and appending notes to customers and orders with the setnotec, appendnotec, setnoteo, and appendnoteo commands (#59)
    • What it does: Allows the user to set a note for each customer and order. The user can either overwrite the customer or order’s existing note using the set commands, or append to an existing note using the append commands.
    • Justification: Notes allow the user to keep any extra information they may need for each customer or order. As a business owner, there may be information related to a specific customer or order that the user wants to keep track of.
    • Highlights: Involves adding a new note property associated with customers and orders, and UI changes to the customer and order view
  • New Feature: Finding orders by name with the findo command (#69)
    • What it does: A counterpart to findc, the findo command allows the user to find orders by name.
    • Justification: With a large number of orders in a list, it can be difficult to locate a specific order. Thus, the ability to search for orders by name would be useful.
