Project: SPAM

SPAM is a desktop application that is made for fast-typing marketers to handle large quantities of marketing leads and contacts efficiently and precisely. It is a CLI application that has UNIX-like command line syntax, and sports an elegant and modern GUI created with JavaFX. The application is written in Java, and has about 15 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature: Select and Unselect.

    • What it does: Selects/Unselects groups of contacts from the main list.
    • Justification: Marketers may choose to handle selected group of contacts, in which he/she can export and manipulate separately.

  • New Feature: Theme Selection.

    • What it does: Toggle between Light and Dark Theme in the application’s Settings.
