Dogfooding

Sep 24, 11:04 PM

I’ve finally gotten my jQuery branch of Tracks to the point where I can use it personally as I develop it. Autocomplete is still out of the picture, but the rest of the behavior of the home page works well now. Today I got the submission of the new todo form working via Ajax, which completes the home page functionality.

By eating my own dog food, as they say, I can more easily identify the pain points that are still present in the rapidly-evolving jQuery branch. The lack of autocomplete is going to bug the heck out of me, so expect that to be fixed soon. There are some features that I don’t use regularly, such as recurring todos, that likely won’t benefit from dogfooding, but that’s what the rest of the semester is for!
