Poster for dstruct

2019-05-27

This milestone was designing a poster to represent the project’s efforts so far and print it. I wanted to express the dependency graph of the data structures in the library in a way that would be appealing to a non-technical audience. I ended up using the Coggle.it mind mapping web service since it was a great way to create colorful appealing dependency graphs. The diagram on the poster is located here. I then created three sections below the diagram to clearly explain the problem, solution, and results. The information included is high level and brief.

In this milestone I learned how to print posters using vector graphics. I have never really done much design work for paper posters before so I was unfamiliar with programs like illustrator and the difference between vector and raster graphics. I ended up using Adobe illustrator to design the poster and Staples to print it.

This advances the project by being able to present the findings at capstone night. I will be working on finishing the library and publishing public modules for the project.
