Stephanie Wills developed and maintained the proCAT repository for Imperial College London, delivering a robust Django-based platform for project tracking, financial reporting, and capacity planning. Over six months, she engineered features such as time-series analytics, cost recovery dashboards, and automated CSV reporting, integrating Python, Django ORM, and Bokeh for data visualization. Her work emphasized data integrity, test-driven development, and maintainable code, with improvements to scheduling logic, timezone handling, and UI consistency. By refactoring models, enhancing CI/CD pipelines, and expanding test coverage, Stephanie ensured the system supported accurate forecasting, reliable reporting, and streamlined workflows for both technical and non-technical users.

October 2025 focused on strengthening data correctness, visual analytics, and UI reliability in ImperialCollegeLondon/proCAT. Delivered timezone-aware data handling and static typing fixes, advanced time-series visuals with varea shading and precise hover behavior, and UX/UI improvements to capacity planning and cost recovery with clearer copy and default form values. Also stabilized the product by fixing funding validation on create and removing the Funding link from the navbar, while adding a user-facing improvement to show the current date by default in the charges report form.
