1. Introduction

The Projects Tracker application has the objective to keep track of Engineering Change Requests (ECR) and Problem Reports (PR) for different projects.

1.1 Languages & Libraries

The application is developed in C# 12 - .NET 8.0 and uses the following packages:

  • MaterialDesignThemes 5.1.0 for material design
  • Microsoft.Data.Sqlite 8.0.7 for SQLite database management
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection 8.0.0 for page navigation
  • Newtonsoft.Json 13.0.3 for JSON conversion of SQL query results
  • SharpVectors.Wpf 1.8.4 for including .svg icons

The front-end is developed in WPF using the XAML language.

1.2 Project's Structure

The project is structured in the following folders.

  • icons: icons used in the GUI
  • images: README images
  • rc: resources
    • rc\ResourceDictionaries: resource dictionaries from Microsoft
  • src: back-end of the application
    • Database: all interfaces with SQLite database
    • Models: models
    • MVVM: ModelView-ViewModel design pattern

2. Dashboard

The application opens on the Dashboard. It contains two types of card:

  • Standalone Projects: projects not inside a solution,
  • Solutions: container for multiple sub projects that are grouped together.

Each Project/Solution is represented with a card divided into three parts:

  • Header containing the wording PROJECTS / SOLUTION
  • Body containing the name of the item and other informations
  • Footer containing the buttons for editing / deleting

2.1 Add Project

By clicking on the Add Project button, a dialog appears allowing the user to create a new project, giving the following parameters:

  • Project Name
  • Solution Reference
    • No Solution creates a standalone project
    • Create New Solution creates a new solution (with the given name) and insert the project inside
    • Add To Existing Solution moves the project in the selected solution

2.2 Add Solution

By clicking on the Add Solution button, a dialog appears allowing the user to create a new solution, giving the following parameters:

  • Solution Name

2.3 Edit Project

By clicking on the Edit button on a project card, a dialog appears allowing the user to modify a project's parameters:

  • Project Name
  • Solution Reference
    • No Solution leave it as a standalone project
    • Create New Solution creates a new solution (with the given name) and insert the project inside
    • Add To Existing Solution moves the project in the selected solution

2.4 Edit Solution

By clicking on the Edit button on a solution card, a dialog appears allowing the user to modify a solution's parameters:

  • Solution Name
  • Extract All Sub-Projects if checked extracts all the sub-projects and turn them into standalone ones

2.5 Delete Project / Solution

By clicking on the Delete button on a project/solution card, a dialog appears allowing the user to delete a project / solution. Pay attention that by removing a solution, all the sub-projects inside will be deleted too: before confirming, it could be better to extract all subprojects.

2.6 Move Project

A project can be moved inside a solution by dragging it.

3. Solution

By clicking on a solution card you enter in the Solution page. It is very similar to the dashboard one, a part that only the sub projects are shown.

The user can go back to the dashboard page by clicking on the Home Icon.

3.1 Add Sub Project

By clicking on the Add Sub Project button, a dialog appears allowing the user to create a new sub project, giving the following parameters:

  • Sub Project Name
  • Solution Reference
    • Leave In Solution creates a project in the current solution
    • Extract From Solution moves the created project in the dashboard as standalone
    • Add To Existing Solution moves the project in the selected solution

3.2 Edit Sub Project

By clicking on the Edit button on a sub project card, a dialog appears allowing the user to modify a project's parameters:

  • Project Name
  • Solution Reference
    • No Solution leave it as a standalone project
    • Create New Solution creates a new solution (with the given name) and insert the project inside
    • Add To Existing Solution moves the project in the selected solution

3.3 Delete Sub Project

By clicking on the Delete button on a sub project card, a dialog appears allowing the user to delete a sub project.

3.4 Extract Sub Project

A sub project can be extracted from the solution by dragging it over the orange icon.

4. Project

By clicking on a project / sub-project card you can enter in the Project page, which is composed of three parts:

  • At the top there are the buttons to add a new ECR / PR / RELEASE / PATCH

    • Creation Date
    • Closure Date
    • Version plus the Discovery Version for PR
    • Patch Version
    • Identifier
    • Status (Assigned - In Progress - Done)
    • Priority (1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5)
