TaskaPermata - A Web App for Day Care Centers

So, to help my mother-in-law, I've participated in a training for day care centers. It's a good experience as well as I have small kids and I learned how to take care of the kids - food, activities, health, etc.

Nonetheless, throughout the training, I tried to think of ways to also help the day care centers. Some of the major problems I found are:

1. Scratches / bruises are a no-no at day cares

There's a huge chance for a day care to be filed a law suit if anything like that happens. But what if the bruises / scratches come from home? How would the day care center prove that?

2. Activities & Milestones

The kids tend to spend more time at day-care. The only time parents would have for the kids would be on the weekends. So it's very important for day-cares to be able to understand and detect if kids are progressing slower than the supposed milestones.

So, after the training, I decided to build a web-app for the day care centers. The current web-app focuses on recording check ins and activities, and keep track of milestone checklists.

One thing I love about building new things are exploring the possibilities of the development. For this specific web-app, I've learned that we can actually plot via javascript. I thought this was cool and I implemented it during the recording of check-in:

    The caretaker would be able to mark bruises / scratches that they found at the kids' body upon           
    receiving the kid from the mom. The mom should also be filling in the same check-in prior to
    sending the kid to the caretaker.

This app users the following technologies:

VB.Net, MVC, MsSQL, jQuery, Javascript, Linq, CSS, HTML, DataTable, API, JSON

The web-app is currently under beta testing at 2 day care centers. Will update with the feedback and more screenshots soon!

VS 2022 / .Net Core Error : Node.js is required to build and run this project. To continue, please install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/, and then restart your command prompt or IDE.

I just created a new .Net Core 3.1 project. I installed Node.JS (from Nuget Packages). I've also used the VS installer to install Node.JS. But when I run, I was still having the issue below error : Node.js is required to build and run this project. To continue, please install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/, and then restart your command prompt or IDE. I was running Visual Studio 2022. What solved it was the following: 1) I searched for node.exe and found it at the following folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\NodeJs 2) Opened Windows Start Menu and typed "Edit the system environment variables" 3) Click on "Environment Variables" 4) At the next screen, look for "Path" under "System Variables". Double click it / click edit. 5) Add the nodejs path from (1). 6) Restart visual studio and taraa. Solution was from one of the answers in:  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59115525/node-j

VS Code / Flutter: Error "'flutter' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet..."

 I was trying to run a command: flutter pub add youtube_player_flutter But it was giving me the error: "'flutter' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet..." To fix this, we need to add it to the Environment Variables (just like what I did for node.js in the previous post!) 1) You should know where's your flutter's sdk at this point. Mine is at: C:\src\flutter\bin 2) Opened Windows Start Menu and typed "Edit the system environment variables" 3) Click on "Environment Variables" 4) At the User variables for User, click on Path. 5) Add the flutter sdk's path from (1). 6) Do the same for "System Variables". Double click on "Path" / click edit. 5) Add the flutter sdk's path from (1). 6) Restart visual studio code and then, all done!

MapBox Flutter Turn-by-turn Navigation - Not Updated / Not Working

 I have spent countless hours/days trying to fix the turn-by-turn navigation. I thought it was just me not understanding flutter and MapBox integration. Apparently, there was an issue in their SDK for turn-by-turn navigation. It has been fixed for Android native SDK but not for Flutter's. There may be a way to fix it. But I've decided to go native now. Bye Flutter. 😭 P.S. Share with me if you were able to make their turn-by-turn navigation a success!
