Contributed to the cornell-dti/idol repository by developing a Portfolio Submission Notification System that automates email reminders for developers to submit portfolios before deadlines. Leveraging Node.js, Firebase, and GitHub Actions, the solution schedules daily checks for upcoming deadlines, retrieves submission data, and targets notifications to relevant team members, reducing manual follow-up and improving submission rates. The implementation extended existing notification patterns for consistency and included backend updates and CI integration, validated through local and manual testing. Additionally, improved contributor governance by updating documentation in Markdown and YAML, ensuring accurate recognition of contributors and maintaining clear, standards-driven project documentation practices.
