Project: uNivUSal

uNivUSal is a desktop application used to link CS2103T users to all the modes of communication of other users to make their lives easier. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 20 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Added the ability to group contacts.
    • What it does: Allows the user to categorize their contacts into groups.
    • Commands: addtogroup ungroup group
    • Justification: This feature significantly improves the usability of the product as it allows users to more effectively manage their contacts.
    • Highlights: This enhancement also adds a popup window for each group, along with an Email All GUI button which should be useful for TAs and Professors.
  • New Feature: Added the ability to email all the contacts in a group via the CLI.
    • What it does: Allows the user to contact all members of a group by email with a single command.
    • Command: emailall
    • Justification: As our application is targeted towards TAs and Professors, this feature significantly enhances the application as they often have to message all students in a tutorial/module.
    • Highlights: This command works with any web browsers and email clients, whichever is set as the default on the user’s computer.
  • New Enhancement: Enhanced the help command UI and examples.
    • What it does: Allows the user to get useful information about the usage of commands through the application directly.
    • Command: help
    • Justification: As our application is targeted towards efficiency, allowing users to access help directly from the application instead of having to open the web browser is ideal.
    • Highlights: This enhancement displays the information in a table format using monospace fonts which is easier to read for the users.
