Alston
Alston Chen contributed to the Hack4Impact-UMD/leveling-the-playing-field repository by delivering a Receipts UI overhaul and integrating Salesforce Opportunities data into the application. Over two months, Alston refactored the receipts interface from an accordion to modal dialogs, introduced a custom XIcon for consistent dialog closure, and updated the data model to organize receipts by sport category. He implemented REST API endpoints in TypeScript and Node.js to fetch and map Salesforce Opportunities, improving data accuracy and reconciliation. Alston also added dictionary-based internationalization and standardized SVG icon rendering, resulting in a more maintainable, scalable, and multilingual user experience across the frontend.
