Hey everyone, I'm Aritra, a junior pursuing an M.Sc. degree in Computer Science at CMI. This summer, I am working on migrating the unofficial CDP to the official site of OmegaUp (here) as a part of GSoC 2024.
Before reading the blog, you might want to go through the first blog of GSoC '24. I also participated in GSoC '23 with Mathesar, you can find the related blogs here.
In this blog, I will share about the project and our (Carlos, Juanpa and I) progress on the project.

A little bit about Myself:

I love Mathematics and Algorithms. This semester, I will be exploring Cryptography and Advanced Machine Learning. If you want to know me better, you might want to visit my LinkedIn profile, GitHub profile or go through my portfolio. There you will find numerous ways to get in touch with me. I will write more blogs on GSoC '24, you can find them here.
You may click on the images to visit the issues/pages. Let's dive into the project details.



The CDP page

What is the CDP:

CDP stands for Creador de Problemas in Spanish which translates to Problem Creator. This interactive component aims to reduce the complexity to create a problem for OmegaUp platform. Previously, Mau implemented the unofficial CDP to help users create a problem. He also started the project to make it a part of official omegaUp site.
Now, if we want to write a problem, we typically need to create zip file following this with some required folders that contains the problem markdown, solution markdown and the test cases. The CDP will abstract the zip file creation and just require you to write the markdowns and the test cases.

What I have learnt:

Over the past two months, I've learned a lot thanks to the collaborative community I'm part of. Most of my work is focused on frontend for now. Implementing the CDP, it required me to study the codebase in depth, along with the previous PRs of Mau. Additionally, I'm becoming more proficient with Bootstrap Vue and Vue test utils. You will find all of my merged PRs here.

Towards the second phase:

Thanks to Carlos and Juanpa for their excellent guidance throughout. The CDP page still needs a lot of improvement before it can be officially deployed. The pending tasks are:

  • To add layout sidebar.
  • To complete the working of download and upload the zip file.
  • to write e2e cypress tests.

Soon, I will write the next blog when the CDP would be fully-functional. Goodbye till then!
