Gerardo Alonso Martinez Monge developed foundational gamification features and backend improvements for the Funread/funread repository over a two-month period. He established a Django-based framework supporting badges, user levels, team associations, and points logging, focusing on scalable data models and admin tooling to enable future user engagement features. In a subsequent phase, Gerardo consolidated the user level system by migrating its functionality into the Users app, streamlining the data structure and improving maintainability. He also enhanced the API by introducing endpoints for badge retrieval, leveraging Python and Django to deliver a robust backend architecture with an emphasis on data consistency and extensibility.

February 2025: Delivered significant backend consolidation and API improvements for Funread/funread.
