PROFILE

Cátia Zharko

Worked on the SuperTux/supertux repository to address a UI stability issue in profile management, focusing on preventing confusing states when no profiles remain. Implemented a targeted fix in C++ that resets the current profile pointer before refreshing the menu, ensuring all profile-related actions are correctly disabled when appropriate. This approach reinforced memory safety and improved the reliability of event-driven UI updates. The solution aligned with documented UX expectations and closed a tracked issue, reducing user confusion and support needs. Demonstrated skills in C++ development, UI/UX design, and version-control traceability, with an emphasis on robust state management and testability.

June 2026 — SuperTux/supertux: Delivered a targeted stability fix for profile management that prevents confusing UI states when no profiles remain, alongside reinforcing UI state discipline for future changes. The fix ensures all profile-related actions are correctly greyed out in the Profile Menu when there are zero profiles, by resetting m_current_profile to nullptr before refresh in delete paths. This was implemented in commit 30862c637b2638170158ecb4db5ee5e27d34db01 and closes issue #3634. Business impact: reduces user confusion, lowers support tickets, and increases onboarding confidence. Technical impact: strengthened memory/state handling, safer UI updates, and improved testability around profile-management flows. Technologies/skills demonstrated: C++ UI state management, memory safety, event-driven updates, version-control traceability, issue/PR linkage.
