Improving Date Selection Logic in Landing Project
We've been working on the landing project, focused on refining the date selection process for GitHub sync within a calendar view. The goal is to provide a more intuitive user experience when fetching commits.
Previously, the date selection was limited by a commit count check, preventing users from selecting dates without local commits. To improve this, we removed the commit count check, allowing users to select any date within a defined API window. This ensures that the sync functionality can retrieve new commits from GitHub across a broader range of dates.
Additionally, we enhanced the state management for the date picker component. By ensuring that the state is properly initialized, we prevent issues where the date selection doesn't correctly update the application's state. This involves correctly handling how the component interacts with the application's data flow. These adjustments provide a smoother and more reliable experience for users interacting with the date selection feature.
