June 2025 monthly summary for cse110-sp25-group17/cse110-sp25-group17: Delivered user-facing features, onboarding improvements, and persistence enhancements that directly impact user engagement and retention. Key features delivered: - Starter seed disabled by default: on first run, the collection starts empty, triggering an empty-state UI message to clearly communicate an initial setup, reducing confusion for new users. Commit: 4b7f74f27e163ce5d95ac3fab336c7db0416fb05. - Starter seed enabled by default on first run: seed the initial three starter cards (Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle) and render starter cards to accelerate early engagement and provide a guided starting experience. Commit: 81099d5e4b5d6af40a843da92a0c1846ffc86c3c. - Name guessing game expansion and test enhancements: expand the game flow so correct guesses add cards to the collection, and improve test coverage and organization to ensure reliability as features scale.
