Shuan worked on the hack4impact-calpoly/lcslo-octagon-barn repository, building a document management system that links documents to events through a robust schema and type-safe IDocument typing. He developed a client-facing upload portal with a reusable drag-and-drop component, ensuring secure and streamlined document submission. On the front end, Shuan created dynamic EventTile components with locale-aware date formatting and venue-based backgrounds, integrating API-driven data for accurate event displays. Using TypeScript, React, and Mongoose, he improved data integrity, enhanced UI consistency, and supported marketing needs with public imagery assets. His work demonstrated depth in both backend schema design and frontend dynamic rendering.
April 2025: Delivered major front-end improvements to the Octagon Barn events experience, focusing on API-driven Event Tile rendering, dynamic home-page event tiles, and enhanced imagery. Implemented venue-based backgrounds, improved time formatting, and corrected guest count usage. Fixed API integration and endDate support, refreshed UI styling, and added public imagery assets to support marketing and consistency across channels. Result: more accurate event data presentation, better user experience, and clearer navigation to events.

February 2025 (hack4impact-calpoly/lcslo-octagon-barn): Key features delivered include a Document Management and Event Linking data model (document schema, IDocument typing, Event reference) enabling robust document-event relationships; a Client Document Upload Portal with a reusable drag-and-drop upload component and guarded actions; a new EventTile UI component with locale-aware date formatting and variant styling/navigation; UI polish for Navbar/Footer to ensure consistent layout; and documentation update adding the new team member to the roster. Major bugs fixed include updating the Document schema to reference the Event model (eventId) and correcting event date/time formatting in EventTile, with added code comments for clarity. Overall impact: improved data integrity and relationships, streamlined client document submission, and a cohesive user interface that scales with new features. Technologies/skills demonstrated: TypeScript typings for IDs, React component design, drag-and-drop integration, locale-aware date formatting, CSS/UX polish, and documentation.
