This side project log covers work done from 3/20/2023 - 3/27/2023
I started a new project that aimed to recreate parts of SEPTA's website with a more elegant UI, and using SEPTA's new "SEPTA Metro" wayfinding. The main goal with this project was to help me learn Svelte. I also had to reverse-engineer the APIs on septakey.org in order to authenticate a user and get their trip history.
In terms of Svelte, I really enjoyed working with it and overall I found it much more elegant and easier to work with than React. I didn't like the way it handled client-server interaction with its serverside functions.
I have not made this open source yet and do not intend to until it's more polished.
I made all the necessary changes and tests to get VerifiedBot working. It is now waiting on my friend Ben to merge my PR with the changes outlined in my spring break blog.
I created some QoL features, such as using Discord's embeds instead of sending regular text messages, showing which board a post was on, and fixing some bugs.
The below projects had minimal/no work done on them: RingGold, and NWS Container Deployment Service
