Gonzalo Areal developed foundational donor and grant user interface enhancements for the UTDallasEPICS/Kids-U-Donor-Volunteer-Database repository, focusing on improving navigation and frontend iteration. He built a new Grantor Details page and refactored the existing Grants page to link seamlessly to it, streamlining user flows between donor and grant records. To support rapid frontend development and UI validation, he introduced mock grantor data, allowing work to proceed independently of backend dependencies. Using JavaScript, TypeScript, and React within a Next.js framework, Gonzalo’s contributions provided a solid base for future features, though the scope was limited to a single feature over one month.
