Friday 21/08: 8AM – 2PM I finished a PR today and spent the rest of the day learning about TypeScript (TS). I’ve been following a LinkedIn Learning tutorial supplemented with some YouTube tutorials. TS is a super set of JavaScript (JS) which introduces type definitions to JS. TS, when implemented correctly, makes your application moreContinue reading “PRJ – 14”

Thursday 20/08: 8AM – 3PM As per usual we had a developer meeting in the morning. A lot of the day was spent trying to get some applications running on my machine which I will be working on. Since alot of the applications rely on other services it’s actually a bit tricky to get themContinue reading “PRJ – 13”

Wednesday 19/08: 8AM – 2:30PM After spending another 2 hours wrestling with priting the sheets I gave in. I couldn’t get each product on it’s own page using window.print( ). The window.print() function prints the screen but you can alter the CSS to hide and display what you need to print. Once the print buttonContinue reading “PRJ – 12”

Tuesday 18/08: 12PM – 4PM Today I went back to the printing multiple sheets feature I was working on last week after getting some help from one of the other developers. The way I had set it up, each page had it’s own print button which meant you’d have to press print for every sheetContinue reading “PRJ – 11”

Monday 17/08: 12PM – 4PM Today I started working on my new task while I wait for some help to finish the printing task. My new task is to switch out an API for an existing application and integrate it into the new API as a service. The old API is using GraphQL and .NETContinue reading “PRJ – 10”

Friday 14/08: 8AM – 1:00PM My plan for today was to finish working on printing multiple sheets at once. I cleaned up the UI to make sure it looked tidy and worked as intended. I did some small refactorings and tidied up the code in preperation for a pull request before doing some more testsContinue reading “PRJ – 9”

Thursday 13/08: 8AM – 2:00PM Today started off with a meeting amongst the developers where we look at what we’ve done in the past week and how the next week will look in terms of tasks. We have the chance to discuss things we are working on as well. Today I made a lot ofContinue reading “PRJ – 8”

Wednesday 12/08: 8AM – 2:30PM Again, most of the day was spent on being able to print multiple sheets apart from doing two other minor jobs. I added two input fields and a corresponding redux action/reducer function to the sidebar. Now the user is able to specify which customer the sheets are for and assignContinue reading “PRJ – 7”

Tuesday 11/08: 12PM – 4PM I spent the entirety of today making progress on printing multiple product sheets and have learned a lot in the progress. Yesterday, I was feeling quite overwhelmed by all the code and what was doing what however as I made progress I got a better understanding of the application IContinue reading “PRJ – 6”

Monday 10/08: 12:30PM – 4PM Today is Monday so I had a few things to tidy up from a few pull requests I had made the week before. Most were small fixes but on my google analytics pull request I had accidentally used NPM in a Yarn project. This was purely out of habit sinceContinue reading “PRJ – 5”
