Wednesday work, part II
When things finally get rolling, man, do they roll. I just implemented saving project edits, only taking about an hour to do so. This is fantastic because finally, five weeks into the project, the app has acquired some useful functionality: you … Continue reading
Wednesday work
As I expected, I was able to finish the refactoring last night, so today I’ve been doing more work on project editing. We now validate all fields in the form; if any are invalid, the save button is disabled and … Continue reading
