Project: Teletubbies

Teletubbies is a desktop application developed and designed for telemarketers and telemarketing supervisors to help manage their customer contacts. Teletubbies allow users to create a checklist based on a set of customer contact data, with additional features such as tagging and viewing statistics to help improve their workflow.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • Tag-related features:
    • Improved tags with the addition of a tag value field and accessibility based on the user’s role. (Pull request #71, #80)
      • Justification: It is likely that users would want to have tags with specific values (e.g assignee: Jason) or disallow their employees from editing these tags.
    • tag (for adding tags) and tagrm (for removing tags) that allows users to tag contacts in large batches with a range of indices. (Pull request #80)
    • filter and export commands that allow users to specify contacts with their tags. (Pull request #71, #80, #43)
      • Justification: Tags would be significantly more useful, if tagged users can easily be exported in batch. For example, a supervisor might want to export all contacts assigned to their employee Joanne.
  • Auto-complete feature:
    • Users can press the [TAB] key after typing the name of a command to autofill recommended flags for the command. (Pull request #87, #167)
      • Justification: Typing out flags for a command can be cumbersome. Autofill speeds up this process and allows users to avoid looking up the help message.
  • GUI key bindings:
    • Set-up key bindings for [UP], [DOWN] (for command history) and [TAB] (for autocomplete) keys, to trigger actions on key-presses. (Pull request #84)
  • Enhancements to existing features:
    • Improved Tag feature (as mentioned above)
    • Improved workflow for creating commands with UI effects, with the help of UiConsumer which encapsulates changes to the UI (like a window pop-up), and reduces the overhead for generating new UI effects. (Pull requests #43, #182)
