During two months on the unchihugo/keylab repository, Michael Tilley developed core backend features for order processing, checkout, and a robust roles and permissions system. He designed relational data models in Go and SQL to support order lifecycles, cart flows, and inventory updates, integrating these with secure API routes and middleware for authentication and access control. Michael expanded the product catalog, improved admin tooling, and implemented configuration management and automated testing using Docker and Testcontainers. His work emphasized data integrity, operational efficiency, and secure governance, resulting in a well-architected backend that supports transparent workflows and reliable, role-based access to key business functions.

February 2025 (2025-02) monthly summary for unchihugo/keylab. Delivered end-to-end Order Processing and Checkout functionality and a comprehensive Roles and Permissions System (RBAC). Implemented core data models for orders and order items, cart flow with total calculation, address handling, stock updates, and cart clearing, plus API routes for retrieving order details and updating status. Rolled out RBAC with roles/permissions models, data seeding, user-model integration, and updated authentication/authorization middleware to enforce access controls. A middleware fix for admin/auth issues was included in this RBAC rollout. These changes improve checkout reliability, inventory accuracy, governance, and security, unlocking faster order processing and better compliance. Technologies demonstrated include backend design, relational data modeling, API route design, middleware security, data seeding, and access-control architecture.
