Working on LP Calculator.
Ship Changes requested

I made a flask app that is currently being hosted on vercel that calculates loyalty points with American Airlines. It is supposed to be better than the other options out there by providing a cleaner, more intuitive UI, with new features with a timeline showing status progression. What was challenging with this was kinda just figuring out the web-end of it. I normally only code backend stuff so this is one of the few times where I had to work on a full frontend without getting someone else to help me. (I did use AI to assist me with this task though). In the end, I did persevere and I’m appreciative of the end result I have created.

Picture 1 shows the map view of the website, and Picture 2 shows the loyalty timeline.

Devlog #3 - the final one?

Hi, so I’ve been working on minor stuff.

  • added a light mode
    • my eyes hurt looking at this T_T
    • pic 1
  • fixed weird rending issue with trans-pacific flights
  • added the LP bonus tiers from AA website
    • pic 2 (yes I turned dark mode back on)

To be honest, this is as much as I can think of, I really don’t want the scope of this project to get too far fetched with trip optimization as it’s supposed to be a cool looking tool, not really a planning agent. Probably my next project will be creating a personal website.

Devlog 2

(How did I just realize markdown works here 😭)
Anyways, so things I added. Not really much, i’m kinda running out of ideas of what to add since the project has been mostly fleshed out so here are just cool things I thought to add:

  • Modified Trip Render Logic
    • Issue: Used to keep shifting a reference frame along a flattened list of segments
    • Effect: If trips are added in a certain way, it can put marker rendering at far distances on the map
    • Solution: Changed to localize on origin of each trip, leading to renderings to center around 1 map
    • (Refer to Pic 1)
  • Expanded map view on loyalty timeline
    • Just zooms out on all trips
    • Kinda looks cool :)
    • (Refer to Pic 1)
  • Airport Website/Wikipedia
    • Links you to the airports webpage when clicking on its tooltip
  • Random renaming
    • Made some names more consistent, reduced unneeded files

I realized stardance was a thing, and I had this project I wanted to add that I had been working on. Currently, it has the ability to add multiple trips, each with multiple segments, with each being able to be compared. This can be used to maximize loyalty status with AA, and has a cleaner UI with extra features, like the loyalty timeline. (1st image is initial starting page, 2nd image is the loyalty timeline, 3rd image is an example trip in the webpage).
