Full Stack: Dance Costume Order Production Workflow Tracker

▶

Dance Culture Designs Tracker

Role: UX/UI & Graphic Designer, Full‑Stack Developer

Tech Stack: PHP, MySQL, JavaScript/jQuery, HTML5/CSS3, REST API

Custom PHP Order-Tracking & Workflow Application

I designed and developed a fully custom order-tracking system for Dance Culture Designs, a boutique costume-making business. Built with PHP, MySQL, JavaScript/jQuery, and RESTful APIs, the Dance Culture Designs Tracker streamlines the entire production pipeline— from order intake to inventory depletion and final payment.

Key Features:

Role-Based Dashboards:
Two distinct interfaces—one for DCD Admins and another for Seamstresses— tailored to their specific permissions and workflow stages.
Visual Order Workflow Management:
Orders are managed via a drag-and-drop board, moving through clearly defined production states like New, In Production, Waiting on Payment, and Adjustments Delivered.
In-App Product Annotation:
Admins can annotate product images with costume-making notes, ensuring precise communication of instructions.
Seamstress Invoice Automation:
Seamstresses can group fulfilled orders and auto-generate PDF invoices, with automatic state transitions (e.g., Pending Invoicing → Waiting on Payment).
Inventory-Aware Production:
A live inventory management module keeps track of materials on hand. As products move into production, the app deducts corresponding materials automatically.
Product Catalog Integration:
Admins can define a full product catalog—names, images, SKUs, sizes, materials—which is auto-matched to incoming Shopify or Etsy orders.

This system replaced manual tracking and communication with a centralized, collaborative tool—reducing miscommunication, streamlining fulfillment, and empowering both the admin and production sides of the business.

Full Stack: Chinese Bazi Calculator

▶

Bazi Calculator & Natal Chart Generator

Role: UX/UI & Graphic Designer, Full‑Stack Developer

Tech Stack: PHP, MySQL, JavaScript/jQuery, HTML5/CSS3, REST API

I conceived, designed and delivered a fully‑responsive online Bazi (Four Pillars) calculator at MasterPaola.com. From wireframes to polished visuals, I crafted every interface element—icons, color‑coded trigrams, chart grids and interactive tooltips—to make complex Chinese metaphysics instantly approachable.

On the back end, I architected a bespoke PHP REST API layer sitting atop a MySQL database of Celestial Stems, Earthly Branches, hexagrams and auxiliary stars. Given a user’s date‑and‑time of birth, the API performs dozens of chronological, elemental and directional lookups—over 300 discrete data points in a single request— parses hidden pillars, luck cycles, life stages and decan interactions, then returns a structured JSON payload that drives the front‑end renderer.

The front‑end JavaScript assembles that JSON into an elegant, print‑ready natal chart:

Four Pillars (year/month/day/hour) with stem‑branch icons, elements, animals, yin/yang and hexagram overlays
Hidden Stems, Ten Gods, 12 Stages and Auxiliary Stars panels, dynamically paginated
Luck Pillars with date‑based timing and hover‑activated detail
Five‑Element Breakdown pie chart and sortable “10 Gods” table

Built for reliability and ease of extension, the PHP/MySQL API supports batch lookups, unlimited paging and caching, while the UI uses modular CSS and semantic HTML for accessibility. The result is a high‑performance, low‑maintenance web application that turns esoteric birth‑chart math into a stunning, interactive user experience—demonstrating my skills in UX design, graphic layout, API engineering and full‑stack development.

Front-End: Form Customizer for SharePoint

▶

Dynamic Classic Mode Form Customizer for SharePoint

Role: UX/UI & Designer, Front-End & SharePoint Developer

Tech Stack: SharePoint, JavaScript/jQuery, HTML5/CSS3, REST API

Transform SharePoint’s out-of-the-box NEW, EDIT, and DISPLAY list forms into a polished, user-friendly interface with a single, reusable JavaScript/jQuery module. This solution empowers developers to configure dozens of enhancements via one customizeForm({ ... }) call—no page designer or server-side code required.

This reusable module cut SharePoint development time in half within two SharePoint development teams I have led.

Automatic Tabs & Sections: Split fields into logical groups as tabs or collapsible sections, defined by formGroups.
Web Part Tabbing & Visibility: Turn web parts into tabs or hide them by title.
Field & Group Hiding: Hide any field or group without modifying list settings.
Deep Customization: Open tabs by URL, print view toggle, status progress bar, rich tooltips, save & continue button.
Advanced Attachment Handling: Embed custom file inputs, upload to child libraries, set metadata, display confirmation dialogs—all without postbacks.
Performance & UX: Prevent UI blinking, sticky controls, utilities for REST calls and polyfills.

How It Works

Pre-conditions: use native form markup, include jQuery/jQuery UI and CSS, configure field order.

Initialize with:

_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("init");
function init() {
  if (!inEditMode()) {
    const customizeOptions = {
      formGroups: [
        { rowIndex: 0, groupTitle: "Main", groupID: "MainTab" },
        { rowIndex: 3, groupTitle: "Details", groupID: "Tab1" },
        { rowIndex: 6, groupTitle: "Files", groupID: "Tab2" }
      ],
      formGroupsTabsEnabled: true,
      webPartTabsEnabled: true,
      verticalTabs: true,
      untabbedWebPartTitles: ["NotesWP"],
      hiddenFieldTitles: ["InternalComment"],
      statusColumnTitle: "Approval Status",
      printView: { hideElements: [".ms-metadata"] },
      minimumWidth: 620
    };
    customizeForm(customizeOptions);
  } else {
    $('#onetIDListForm').addClass('loaded');
  }
}

Tooltips, print view, progress bar, and attachment options are all configurable.

Technical Highlights

Advanced DOM traversal, jQuery UI tabs, sticky positioning.
SharePoint form structure mastery using _spPageContextInfo, REST APIs, and native controls.
Asynchronous loading ensures dynamic elements are ready before execution.

Outcome: A fully client-side module that brings modern UX to classic SharePoint forms, showcasing expertise in JavaScript, jQuery, and SharePoint internals.
