Project: IntelliBrary

IntelliBrary is a desktop library management application used for library administrators to manage books. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

  • New Feature add, view, delete, and edit the Review of a book #126 #213 #231 #237 #244
    • What it does: allows the librarian to record rating and feedback from the readers and estimate the popularity of the book.
