PROFILE

Yixiao

Yixiao Zhang contributed to the BrewR-EPFL/BrewR repository by developing and refining user journey and recommendation features for an Android application. Over two months, Yixiao implemented user-scoped data storage in Firebase Firestore, built end-to-end tested flows for journey management and exploration, and introduced a coffee-themed UI using Jetpack Compose and Kotlin. The work included integrating a KNN-based recommendation system, enhancing the testing framework with Mockito, and improving code quality through ktfmt-based formatting. These efforts resulted in more reliable releases, improved data isolation, and a consistent user experience, demonstrating depth in both backend integration and mobile UI development.
