Asta Hentilä contributed to the UniversityOfHelsinkiCS/palaute repository by delivering seven features over three months, focusing on frontend development and data export workflows. She implemented a robust Sisu Attainment CSV export integrated into the StudentTable, refactored CSV generation pipelines for consistency, and removed legacy upload components to streamline user experience. Using JavaScript, React, and Material-UI, Asta standardized translation keys, improved configuration management, and enhanced UI reliability in edge cases. Her work included replacing Material-UI buttons with custom components to align with design systems, resulting in improved maintainability, reduced technical debt, and a more consistent, accessible user interface across modules.

February 2025 monthly summary for UniversityOfHelsinkiCS/palaute: Delivered a UI enhancement for the Student Feedback Export flow by replacing the Material-UI Button with a custom NorButton, adding an icon and a data-driven disabled state to improve consistency and UX while preserving core export functionality. The change increased UX consistency, reduced visual drift, and maintained export parity. Impact includes improved user adoption for exporting feedback, easier future maintenance, and a foundation for design-system alignment across the module.

December 2024 — UniversityOfHelsinkiCS/palaute: Focused on robustness, stability, and consistency. Key changes include removing unused configuration variables in tau.js, guarding access as potentially empty object to avoid rendering issues when rights are absent, and standardizing translation keys by removing V2 suffix and aligning the main heading key in teacher views to ensure consistent UI across versions. These efforts reduce edge-case UI failures, improve maintainability, and provide a clearer foundation for future enhancements.
