Over four months, contributed to the NTUCSIECouncil/council.csie-frontend repository by delivering features and fixes that improved reliability, maintainability, and user experience. Work included refactoring course page rendering with React and TypeScript to introduce a structured data model, aligning frontend data handling with backend API changes, and enhancing article discovery with pagination-aware fetching. Addressed cross-browser compatibility by defensively managing window object usage and resolved React rendering warnings for stability. Efforts also focused on repository hygiene, standardizing Git submodule configuration, and restructuring content paths. Demonstrated skills in API integration, configuration management, and frontend development using Next.js, JavaScript, and TypeScript.
June 2025: Implemented Course Page Rendering Overhaul and Stability Fix for the council.csie-frontend.
