Week 9 Progress: UI Enhancements, AI Research, and Event Coverage

 

    Week 9, covering April 7–11, was a dynamic mix of UI improvements, technical research, and event documentation. On Monday, the team improved the search bar design to enhance user interaction by refining placeholder text, input alignment, and ensuring responsiveness across various screen sizes. These enhancements were thoroughly tested across multiple browsers and completed without any blockers.

    Tuesday was focused on preparing materials for an upcoming presentation and refining other design elements. Efforts centered on maintaining consistent color schemes and adjusting UI spacing across different modules, successfully completing all planned improvements without issues.

    Midweek, the focus shifted toward researching self-hosted AI solutions, particularly related to LLaMA. Concurrently, refinements were made to the progress bar design to create a smoother user experience. Adjustments were tested and well documented, with no blockers encountered.

    Thursday continued this deep dive into LLaMA 3, collecting key documentation and exploring frameworks for implementation. The research was synthesized to support planning for future development phases, progressing smoothly without any obstacles.

    The week concluded on Friday with serving as the official event photographer for Founders Live Balanga. Key moments, speaker highlights, and audience interactions were captured with care to ensure high-quality documentation for post-event use. This task was completed seamlessly with no blockers.
