Project: PantryPal

PantryPal is an all-in-one application designed to help students manage their meals. The application allows users to keep track of their ingredients, automatically generate shopping lists, plan their meals, and store recipes.

Given below are my contributions to the project:

MealPlanManager Class

• Developed a robust manager class to handle the core functionality of meal plan creation and assignment to days of the week, and detailed/summarized views.
• Introduced day-based plan assignment using an enum (Day) to represent each day of the week, aligning with real-world scheduling needs.
• Implemented plan removal logic that ensures any assigned plan is removed from both the central list and any associated weekly day slots.
• Created user feedback mechanisms through Ui.showMessage() to guide the user through actions such as adding/removing plans or handling edge cases like duplicates or invalid indexes.

Plan Class

• Designed the Plan class to represent a single meal plan with support for up to three recipes per day, categorized by MealType (e.g., breakfast, lunch, dinner).
• Implemented recipe addition and removal logic with clear error handling when attempting to overwrite or delete non-existent entries.
• Developed a custom toString() method to display plan contents in a user-friendly format, showing both the plan name and associated meal recipes.

Added search and indexing features:

• Wrote utility methods to locate plans by name (findPlan) and return corresponding objects.
• Ensured the search was case-insensitive, improving the user experience when dealing with various input formats.

Emphasized modularity and scalability:

• Ensured clean separation of concerns by decoupling plan logic from UI handling and leveraging enums to simplify index mapping.
• Wrote extensible code that can easily be expanded to accommodate features like custom meal types or multi-week scheduling in the future.
• This module significantly improved the app’s functionality by enabling structured meal organization and promoting better user planning habits. My work ensures that the system remains maintainable, user-friendly, and ready for future enhancements.

JUnit Testing:

• Implemented test cases for the MealPlan and MealPlanManager classes to verify the parsing logic.

Documentation

• Wrote the Developer’s guide for the following functions for the MealPlan and MealPlanManager classes::
  • addRecipeToPlan
  • removeRecipeFromPlan
  • viewPlan
  • viewPlanList
  • viewDayPlan
  • viewWeekPlans
    
    
• and further created sequence diagrams for these functions below:
  • addPlan
  • addPlanToDay
  • removePlan
  • removePlanFromDay
  • executePlan
  • findPlan

Project Management

• Provided clear indications and clarifications for GitHub usage with regards to commit, push, merge
• Assisted with debugging and implementation of collaborators’ code
