The Last Day

Hey guys, it’s my last day as an STA for the 2018 Fall – 2019 Spring Semester. The LAITS STA program has been such an invaluable part of my freshman year. I saw the skills required in coding, in design, in general LAITS practices transfer into my school work as well. It was incredible to work with Suloni, I can’t imagine ever working for a boss who genuinely cares for us and pushes us to be better as Suloni does. The  LAITS staff were a pleasure to work with as well – Tim, Chris, Stacy, and countless others, thank you so much. The other STAs were gems as well, thank you to everyone that answered my slacks and pleas asking for help!! Y’all are incredible. At LAITS I strengthened my coding skills by building the UT Appstore and countless other websites for LAITS. I also gained a better experience in design by learning Photoshop and using those skills to do Photo IDs, flyer designs, and mockups. I can’t believe that I was trusted and given the opportunity to work on so many projects so near and dear to the university. As a freshman, nothing made me feel more at home at UT than did working as an STA.

 

This summer I’ll be taking some summer classes, spending time at home with my family, traveling around the United States and abroad to Dubai & India, and interning at a law firm! I also hope to take some time to improve my coding and design skills :’). I don’t know if I’ll be back next semester, but I can say that I’ve had the best time working for LAITS.

 

Thank you all!! And please do message me whenever :’)

Data fetching was not solving the performance problem, since most of the execution time was committed when rendering the timeline component, so today we choose to define two components on the same route and set those on different route views, using css the second view will be hidden until the user decide to select this one. Here is the progress:

Defining two components for the same route:

Passing the components to each of the views:

The two views active, but the first one hidden with css:

Today, I worked on saving the loaded component.

Today, I modified the structure of the Kiowa Timeline, in order to build a fully single page application (Home, About Section and the Timeline itself).
