Week 5

October 10, 2022 By Thang Truong

Project: Exposure Therapy Lab

Started on: October 4, 2022

Completed on: October 6, 2022

Staff Guidance: Ruben, Marianne

Description: For this project, I was asked to complete different requirements as the client requested.

  1. Nest under home a page named Consortium Members
  2. Remove pending and current project. Just displayed Initiatives List.
  3. Move the gallery on the home page to a new page named Consortium Members
  4. On the home page, instead of gallery, display stats and summary over the members

Challenges: Along the way, I encountered some challenges including finding the location of different CSS, HTML files in the project, so that I can update the content accordingly. For the task of nesting a page under home page on the main menu, it was weird that I didn’t see the update even after I added a page and refreshed different things. I also googled and asked Ruben about it. At the end, I tinkered around and moved the home menu to different locations. The home menu displayed the dropdown after returning it back to its original location. It was kind of lucky. There are a lot of different things with Grav that make it hard to search online when I want to accomplish different objectives. For different languages and frameworks like Xcode and Swift, I can search online easily how to make different things but for Grav, it was harder.

 

Project: Monfils Lab

Started on: October 7, 2022

Completed on: October 7, 2022

Staff Guidance: Marianne

Description: For this project, I was tasked with updating the content for the website. I updated the Introduction and Land Acknowledgement on the home page. I also updated the people under Undergraduate Students/RAs.

 

 

 

Meeting for Project: Simile Database

Happened on: October 7, 2022

Description: This is my second meeting with clients. In the meeting, I saw beautiful work done by Marianne, Maddy, Valerie and other LAITS people involved in the project. I took notes for the meeting on things that we need to fix. It was another valuable learning experience since I can see the interactions between developers and real clients.
