Niku Labs contributed to the codeforboston/home-energy-analysis-tool repository by delivering two targeted features over two months, focusing on both backend reliability and frontend security. In July, Niku enhanced the Python-based energy-design workflow by refactoring the get_design_temp helper, aligning type annotations, and introducing unit tests to improve maintainability and reduce regression risk. In August, Niku implemented route-level authentication using Node.js and React, gating the /cases route to ensure only authenticated users could access sensitive case data, while also addressing lint warnings to maintain code quality. The work demonstrated depth in full stack development, authentication, and test-driven engineering practices.

In August 2025, delivered a security-focused UX improvement by gating the /cases route behind authentication, adding a redirect to /login for unauthenticated users, and cleaning up lint warnings to improve build health. These changes reduce risk of unauthorized access to sensitive case data while preserving a smooth user experience with minimal UX impact.
