Worked on the cake_wallet repository to enhance desktop reliability and user experience, focusing on macOS development using Flutter and Dart. Delivered a buy/sell toggle for the desktop exchange interface, updating the BuySellPage and DesktopExchangeCardsSection to streamline trading flows. Addressed a persistent keyboard input issue on macOS by managing the FocusNode lifecycle within widgets and ensuring focus was requested after the first frame, which improved input reliability for KeyboardListener after rebuilds. These changes reduced user friction and potential support needs, while demonstrating skills in cross-platform desktop UI design, widget lifecycle management, and maintainable feature implementation within a production codebase.
April 2025 — cake_wallet (cake-tech/cake_wallet) focused on desktop reliability and UX improvements, delivering two key features and stabilizing macOS keyboard input. Key features delivered: (1) Desktop Exchange: added a buy/sell toggle with updates to BuySellPage and DesktopExchangeCardsSection to switch between buying and selling flows. (2) macOS Keyboard Input Fix: persisted FocusNode across the widget lifecycle (initState/dispose) and requested focus after the first frame to ensure KeyboardListener receives key events after rebuilds. Major bugs fixed: macOS KeyboardListener input issue resolved by persisting FocusNode, improving input reliability on desktop. Overall impact: enhanced desktop reliability and trading flow on macOS, reducing user friction and potential support tickets, and enabling faster interactions in desktop mode. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Flutter/Dart widget lifecycle (initState/dispose, firstFrameCallback), FocusNode management, cross-platform desktop UI design, maintainable Buy/Sell flow, with clear commit traceability.
