Project: Expense Expert

Expense Expert is a desktop expense tracking application used for tracking one's personal expenses. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about ~10 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

• New Feature: Added the ability to set expense categories and tag them to expenses.

  • What it does: allows the user to defined expense categories. viewing expense categories can be done using the listCat command and defined using the addCat command.
  • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can categorise their expenses.
  • Highlights: This enhancement affects existing commands and commands to be added in the future. It required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation challenging as it required building upon the existing model and making design decisions with future features in mind.
