Capstone Project: Journal 2

This Week

I worked on the interactive chart for the project I'm building with my team. I was able to devise a solution for correctly detecting the positioning of each node within the chart. This was a huge win because it is one of the fundamental pieces for this project to work. Almost everything related to the interactivity of this project depends on successfully detecting the positioning of the nodes. There were many challenges, particularly dealing with edge cases, but I overcame them by stepping back, reevaluating the problem and my solution, and identifying the necessary changes. 

Next Week

I plan to continue working on the ruler that goes along with the chart on the left-hand side. The ruler is heavily dependent on the chart and the ability to detect where the nodes are located. This ruler is similar to a Y-axis legend on an interactive financial chart. It needs to stretch to reveal more detailed information as you zoom in and shrink to provide an overview as you zoom out of the chart.

Challenges

The only challenges I'm currently facing are technical ones. These do not require the instructor's involvement; they are general problem-solving obstacles that I will overcome as I become more familiar with the technology I'm implementing.
