Anish Bashyal developed and enhanced the CollabNext_public repository over three months, focusing on backend and frontend integration for research data visualization. He refactored the backend query layer to separate SQL and SPARQL workflows, improving maintainability and scalability. Using TypeScript, React, and Leaflet.js, Anish implemented geospatial data support, enabling API responses to include coordinates and powering interactive map components. He further integrated real-time institution data from the OpenAlex API, delivering a map view with color-coded markers and author counts. His work demonstrated depth in backend architecture, data handling, and frontend visualization, laying a robust foundation for future geo-aware features.

April 2025 performance summary for OKN-CollabNext/CollabNext_public focused on delivering a data-driven, interactive map feature that enhances collaboration planning and institutional outreach. The work combined backend data services with frontend visualization to provide real-time geo-aware insights for institutions, anchored by OpenAlex data sources.

February 2025 Monthly Summary for OKN-CollabNext/CollabNext_public. The primary deliverable this month was a Backend Query Layer Refactor to support distinct SQL and SPARQL query workflows, improving maintainability and scalability of data access across endpoints. Key features delivered: - Backend Query Layer Refactor (SQL vs SPARQL): Introduced distinct query functions for SQL and SPARQL endpoints, updated is_HBCU to use the new SQL query path, and clarified SPARQL endpoint URL usage. Major bugs fixed: - No critical bugs fixed this month; focus was on architecture and code organization improvements. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved code organization and separation of concerns in the data access layer, reducing risk of cross-endpoint changes and enabling smoother future enhancements for multi-endpoint querying. - Lays a solid foundation for performance tuning and endpoint-specific optimizations, with clearer guidelines for SPARQL URL handling. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Backend architecture refactor, modularization, and function-oriented design - Endpoint management for SQL vs SPARQL, with emphasis on maintainability and clarity - Change traceability through commit 43a8e7a00a22c3959a180c288d39cc17963cc700
