Lumi-Camino

What is Lumi-Camino?

Lumi-Camino is an application that encourages anyone who wants to visit the UH Manoa Campus to ensure that they are cleared and allowed to go. As a logged in user, you have the ability to complete the on-campus check-in which asks questions regarding if you are cleared to go on campus. You also have the ability to upload your vaccination card, whether it is through filling out the form or simply taking a picture of it and uploading it into your account. The purpose of this application is to help prevent a potential spread of an already contagious disease on the UH Manoa Campus.

Contribution to Lumi-Camino

One feature that I was able to produce was the side nav-bar that is going to be used to nagivate you through the application.

Another feature that I was able to produce was the health page. This page, in general, expands on the history of your vaccination and check-in status. So that if you are asked to show proof on campus that you have completed the check-in, you can easily pull up the page in the application. This is also a way to track if you had any symptoms in the last 14 days.

The warm-up

Although this is only the warm-up project for what’s in store for this class. I’ve realized how important communication and expectations are. Throughout my time working with my groupmates on this application, we communicated effectively through our own private discord. In our discord channel, we created different text channels to organize ourselves so that we know where everything goes. An example of this would be a text channel dedicated for main-merges. In this text channel we only send out messages regarding if someone has merged in a new branch into the main branch so that everyone knows to update the main branch on their local device. By having these different types of channels we have the ability to continue using our own private channel for the upcoming Meteor Hackathon and even the not so soon Hawaii Annual Coding Challenge.

I’ve also noticed how difficult AWS is to implement into any application. It required a lot of trial and error mostly from my groupmate Michael, who was able to figure out a complete solution for it. Even though I wasn’t involved in implementing AWS, I had the ability to research more about it so that in the future I can apply it to my new applications in the future.

Overall my experience working on this project was satisfactory. My groupmates were all so helpful and understanding that it made my time implementing the code a little less stressful. I can’t wait to see my group in action in the future when it actually counts (Meteor Hackathon and HACC)!
