Connor Macdougall developed a gesture-driven user interface for the Monash-FIT3170/2025W1-HansRoslinger repository, integrating MediaPipe for real-time gesture recognition and React for dynamic UI updates. He established project infrastructure using Meteor, managed dependencies with npm, and implemented a robust gesture handling system supporting multi-gesture effects. Connor refactored gesture logic, introduced enums for gesture and handedness, and enhanced maintainability through code cleanup and ESLint improvements. He also improved onboarding by updating documentation and resolving merge conflicts. His work delivered a stable, extensible codebase in JavaScript and TypeScript, enabling faster feature development and a more reliable, interactive user experience.
