Month: 2026-01 — CodeOnTheGo (appdevforall/CodeOnTheGo) monthly summary focusing on business value and technical accomplishments. Key features delivered: - Implemented RecentProjects endpoint (/pr) for displaying RecentProjects data and updated the backend flow to support HTML rendering (commit 4cf3330ed9834e7de48197f172c8032520cdb901). Also updated the /db endpoint to sort by changeTime to ensure accurate recency ordering, improving user perception of data freshness. - WebServer improvements addressing resource leak concerns and laying groundwork for more robust operation (commit 4cf3330ed9834e7de48197f172c8032520cdb901). Major bugs fixed: - Fixed SQL query to correctly retrieve the last change time from the database in WebServer.kt (commit 383f2f831ba68ad1622b9b840a9d6c74a006f1b6). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Enhanced data freshness and display reliability for RecentProjects, leading to better decision-making with up-to-date information. - Increased system stability by addressing resource leak concerns in WebServer, reducing risk and maintenance effort. - Clear traceability to commits and planned future enhancements (e.g., i-in-a-circle button to launch /pr URL in browsers). Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Kotlin/WebServer.kt backend enhancements and HTML endpoint design - SQL query debugging and optimization (changeTime-based sorting, last change time retrieval) - API design, data formatting for UI, and backend-to-UI integration - Collaboration and code review, with co-authored contributions (e.g., Hal Eisen)
