Project: WhenFree

Overview

WhenFree is a command-line interface (CLI) application for NUS students to find common free time among them and their friends, using just the NUSMODS links to their school timetables. It also offers additional features such as add/delete/edit meetings and saves the data onto hard-disk for future use.

Enhancements implemented:

• Major Enhancement: Implemented the ability to schedule a meeting
  • What it does:
    • Creates a new Meeting object and adds it to the MeetingList.
  • Justification:
    • This is one of the basic functions of the application which is to allow the user to schedule a meeting based on the members’ schedules.
  • Highlights:
    • Having a MeetingList allows us to implement further features such as listing all meetings and deleting a meeting.
    • Moreover, the information from the MeetingList can be saved to the hard disk using the Storage component later.
• Major Enhancement: Implemented the ability to display timetable
  • What it does:
    • Displays user’s timetable using the TextUI component.
  • Justification:
    • During the initial development of the application, the application only provided a list of free slots to the user.
    • This was not user-friendly as the user could not schedule meetings intuitively.
    • Hence, there was a need to develop a method to display the user’s timetable visually.
  • Highlights:
    • This feature allows the user to visualise his/her team’s timetable clearly and see which slots are free so that he/she can schedule a meeting easily.
