Progress Report: 2/18/2026
Currently I am trying out different techinques when it come sto apis. I have also just finished my Gantt Chart which is down below.
The api I am still working with right now is youtube as it seems to be the easiest to work with. As soon as I start getting general
code to work with youtube, I will then work on expanding my reach to other platforms as well.
Week 1 Jan 26 - 30:
During week 1 I finished finalizing what my project was going to be and what my initial and future steps would look like.
During this week I managed to meet with both Dr. Dunbar and BMVP about finalizing these details as well as figure out what actions should
be taken such as logging onto WinSCP.
Week 2 Feb 2 - 6:
During week 2 the majority of my online work has been started and planning for how to start to take effect action are in place. I also managed
to absolutely mess up my computer on the weekend which was 100% not in my plan. Having to plan arround this was certainly a challenge. I will also
lead group discussion for Thursday for The Mythical Man Month and meet with BMVP about a progress update for my project. Currently what is on my
mind for the project is how start searching and incorporating apis into my project for the updating aspect of the project. By the end of the week I
had met with Dr. Dunbar to discuss what sort of data techniques I will be using in my project.
(This was shortly after starting work on the project but thankfully I had a backup plan)
Week 3: Feb 9 - 13:
During week 3 was the Mini Poster Board Sessions in which I presented my project and received great feedback. By this point in the project I was
thinking that I could have a spot on my site for feedback. For now, I will take note of the feedback I received and taking note of what I can do
currently to improve my project. By this point, my main focus is on understanding api implementation and adding a PERT or GANTT chart to my site.
Week 4: Feb 16 - 20
During week 4, I managed to meet with BMVP about how apis interactions work. Currently I am figuring it out and using sites like octoparse could
be an option. For now though, I will refrence videos such as this:https://youtu.be/l56SPYVBwuw?si=H7LP-J7yReMzUJu4&t=175
which serve as a good starting point in figuring out how they work.
