Project: Wishful Shrinking

Wishful Shrinking is a desktop application for managing your diet, keeping track of your on-hand ingredients, recipes, as well as the food you’ve eaten (along with their calories). While it has a GUI, most of the user interactions happen using a CLI (Command Line Interface).

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature 1: Added the ability to get recommended recipes. (Pull requests #109)
    • What it does: allows users to get recipes whose ingredients are all present in their fridge.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can easily search for what recipes they are able to make, with the ingredients that are already present in their fridge.
    • Highlights: This enhancement required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation too was challenging as it was a new command that was not very similar to existing commands.
  • New Feature 2: Added the ability to add ingredients to users’ fridge. (Pull requests #41)
    • What it does: allows users to add ingredients to their fridge.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because users can save ingredients that they have into the fridge, which is essential when using the recommend feature.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects existing commands and commands to be added in future. It required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation too was challenging as it required changes to existing commands.
    • Credits: This feature was refactored from the add feature in AddressBook Level 3.
  • New Feature 3: Added the ability to search for ingredients in the fridge. (Pull requests #47)
    • What it does: allows users to search for ingredients in the fridge by name.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can now easily search for an ingredient by its name to see whether it is present in the fridge.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects existing commands and commands to be added in future. It required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation too was challenging as it required changes to existing commands.
    • Credits: This feature was refactored from the find feature in AddressBook Level 3.
  • New Feature 4: Added the ability to delete a consumed recipe in the consumption list. (Pull requests #78)

    • What it does: allows users to delete a consumed recipe from the consumption list.
    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can now delete the recipes that they do not want anymore from the consumption list.
    • Highlights: This enhancement affects existing commands and commands to be added in future. It required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation too was challenging as it required changes to existing commands.
    • Credits: This feature was refactored from the delete feature in AddressBook Level 3.

  • Code contributed: RepoSense link

  • Project management:
    • Managed release v1.2 (1 release) on GitHub
    • Refactored code to add and support the Ingredient class when work began on the fridge-related features
    • Updated the links and architecture sequence diagram, Logic, Model and Storage class diagrams in the Developer Guide to match Wishful Shrinking
    • Reminded team members to review and approve pull requests in a timely manner
  • Enhancements to existing features:
    • Added support for tags in recipes (Pull requests #85)
      • Justification: This feature, which is refactored from the existing tag feature in Address Book 3, allows users to easily tag their favourite recipes.
    • Added the ability to search for a recipe in the recipe list by its ingredients or tags, in addition to name. (Pull requests #109)
      • Justification: This feature improves on the original find feature in AddressBook Level 3 as it now allows users to search for recipes not only by name, but also by ingredients and tags, making it easier for them to filter their recipes.
    • Wrote additional tests for existing features to increase test coverage from 63.5% to 67.5% (Pull requests #246)
  • Documentation:
    • User Guide:
      • Added documentation for the features searchR, recommend and deleteC: #110
      • Added UI images and labelled and explained the components #178 #259
    • Developer Guide:
      • Added implementation details and diagrams for the features addF, deleteC, recommend and searchR: #118 #266
      • Added Instructions for Manual Testing section in Developer Guide: #282
    • Did cosmetic tweaks to User Guide and Developer Guide and ensured phrasing used was consistent and accurate: #178 #259
  • Community:
    • PRs reviewed (with non-trivial review comments): #117, #115, #175, #173
    • Reported bugs and suggestions for other teams in the class (examples: 1, 2, 3, 4)
