9/17/20 - Worked with the team to discuss specifics on how we will build the app as well as helped work on the personas and user stories milestone. Also looked into different neural network libraries and the different features they offer.
9/23/20 - Worked with the team in discussing and completing the design milestone as well as discussing future milestones and plans for the application.
9/30/20 - Learned some of the features and abilities granted to me by the Django framework. Discussed plan changes with the team moving from a mobile application design to a web app design.
10/07/20 - Met with the team and discussed Django, continued work on the research milestone application, and worked with the team to finish up the requirements milestone.
10/11/20 - Finished my web application using the Django framework. The repository can be found here.
10/18/20 - Met with the team to define the architecture of the back end using the Django framework, discussed new API's and using Celery to make requests to the API in the background without affecting the functionality of the backend, collectively divided up the work between the four of us and came up with set goals to complete individually on each front.
10/18/20 - No progress
10/25/20 - No progress
11/01/20 - Started to research different types of neural networks to determine the best option available for predicting stocks. Started introducing myself to tensorflow and keras frameworks for use in the future.
11/09/20 - Started using tensorflow and keras to create several simple neural networks to further advance my understanding of different types of neural networks as well as gain experience using the tensorflow and keras libraries.
01/18/21 - Got myself settled and organized in Columbia for the new semester and began thinking about changes/improvements that we can make to the app. Started learning about Apache Storm and looked into coding Storm applications in python.
01/25/21 - Found new free API "Alpha Vantage" that we can use one key per user rather than one key for all users. Thinking on how to integrate Storm into the app with "Alpha Vantage" for prediction stock data.
02/01/21 - Had meeting with majority of the group where we went over the newly built app using Django, Django-rest, and React. Discussed using Storm and "Alpha Vantage" to ensure data availability to all users.
02/08/21 - Started learning Storm for work and began thinking of ways we could make use of it's real-time processing capabilities
02/15/21 - Continued looking into using Storm but I am starting to think it is not a viable option for the project as it is currently set up
02/22/21 - Communicated with the team to discuss the new code and get ready for deployment. Deployed the application late and inefficiently, needed the help of Miles to switch from SQLite3 to Heroku Postgres and re-populate the database on the production server.
03/01/21 - Met with the team to discuss the current issues and how we will handle them, suggested that we use Ionic for the front-end, and broke down the remaining work and divided the responsibility among the least contributing members
03/08/21 - Met with Professor Vidal for office hours and discussed how I can better contribute to the project, how to handle deployment issues in the future, and the viability of using Ionic for the front-end
03/15/21 - Began learning react front-end development
03/22/21 - Continued learning react front-end development and began creating some prototype pages
03/29/21 - Began working on the project's actual front-end to sort out all bugs and give the site a more uniform look
03/01/21 - Used material-ui instead of react-bootstrap to make significant frontend changes to the UI and it's functionality, debugged any and all issues, committed changes to ensure team is on the same page with access to the new code, deployed build successfully to heroku, and created new tag for the RC1 release milestone. Working on restructuring backend code regarding login/register/logout to make styling these pages on the frontend easier without losing the working functionality
03/08/21 - Started teaching myself more about material-ui's features and brainstormed new ideas
03/15/21 - Same as last week
03/22/21 - Same as last week
03/29/21 - Same as last week
04/05/21 - Discussed upcoming milestones with the team, began working more with Zane on the frontend
04/12/21 - Quality assurance milestone, worked with the team to find bugs in the Salesforce team's application
04/19/21 - Met with team to break down the newly opened issues from the Quality assurance milestone, began working on frontend bug fixes and enhancements with Zane and Jiabei, added remove confirmation popup to the remove button, merged all new code from each member, cleaned up the UI and styling, and attempted to deploy
04/26/21 - Final day for the 1.0 release milestone, ensured code on git was up to date after Jiabei and Zane's latest commits were pushed, worked closely with Miles and Aaron to deploy our final product, and ran into some issues on my computer breaking the entirety of the code only on my machine so I helped Miles with the deployment as best I could (answering questions about the frontend and helping to reduce the SLUG size of our application) but after my most recent commit Miles did most of the deployment work.
