Upgrade the app to use the paper-scroll-header-panel as done in the polymer starter kit 1.0.3 to improve scroll performance

The GDE Program have a bigger scope now and it's called Google Experts.

Soon we'll have Experts from other Area of expertise, not only Tech/Developer, make sense to rename the App to "Experts Tracking"

Other related things to change:

• Use the new logo
• Change the app url (expertstraking.appspot.com ?)
• Change GDEAccess, Title, etc to Google Experts

Small Nice to have thingys (might be worth creating separated issues, but adding here for centered discussion):

• rename the element gde-signin to expert-signin
• rename property isGde to isExpert

Implementation of the Create/Edit element for the single activity.

Key features:

• Accessible by URL, ex. /activity/123123
• Fully accessible on small Screens
• Read Only when Offline (offline Edit/create covered later with #20 )

After issue 16 is implemented in the BackEnd

Update the app to use the Area of Expertise on the account and display it in the GDE list.

Add the Area of expertise to the activity objects in the generalStatistics, this way activities can be filtered and we can provide a chart by Area of Expertise

I have 2 Google accounts that I use. If I log in with the wrong one I am unable to log out. Having a log out button would be really useful.

I'd love to try to create this feature, but I'm not entirely sure where to start in the app. Is there a guide on how to get the application up and running?

Sometimes selecting a new section on the navigation menu doesn't trigger any action.

This bug seems to be random.

Guess why?

Because I've filtered the PGs by Category, but if the user is not logged in the code to decide the visible PGs.

Set the visible list with the full PG list and filter it after login if needed

Previously we discussed about Batch edit/creation of activities from a Google Spreadsheet and some concerns/ doubts were raised.

Another option, that could fix some of the concerns, would be a "spreadsheet" like edit/creation of activities from the web app.

Following some table/grid custom elements compatible with Polymer 1.0:

• v-grid : pretty cool looking and Material design stile, table/grid, inline edit needs to be handled manually
• aha-table : seems like line editors are already available, might need intensive styling to make it material design

Do we want to implement Spreadsheet based batch edit/creation, Web App batch edit/creation, both?

Should we make a poll and ask current GDEs what would they prefer?

Other concerns?

From old repo

Allow the activities and report to be filtered with a date range
Provide "quick rage selection" for, last 30 days, current quarter, previous quarter, year to date

Composes of requirements 7, 8:

7. The application shall show a rollup of three defined metrics for the current operating year based on an Experts activities:
   1. Reach - the amount of users/developers directly reached by an activity.
   2. Indirect Reach - the amount of users/developer indirectly reached by a given activity.
   3. Trained - the number of developers directly trained by a given activity.
8. The application shall define a call to action for the two most requested actions:
   1. Add new activity
   2. List of existing activities

UI / UX:
https://app.zeplin.io/project.html#pid=56f2d4d5c0ec67301dd83d12&sid=570d5de2e257428a4675b6c9

Composes of requirements 1 and 2:

1. The application shall allow only whitelisted users to log into the system.
2. The application shall use Google Sign-In as the authentication mechanism.

Current implementation of the charts uses the Google Charts library, we could use the google-chart elements, but some features (ex. filters) are missing and should be implemented manually.

Before start using the google-chart element, check if other chart elements are not better suited considering mobile and offline use of the application

When running the gulp command to bundle the app. The vulcanize task fails because of some missing css file. See screenshot:

I'm looking at it...

Support offline edit and creation of activities.

At the moment only users which are listed in the API can sign-in properly.

Updated text and screenshots from the doc

Previously known as GDE Access / My General Statistics / Activity list

Implementation and redesign of the element/page to show:

• "glanceable" activities recap
• activities list/table
• "Add New" FAB
• Merge activities
• Trash/Untrash activities
• Save scroll position (Nice to Have, to avoid scrolling when getting back to the list after an edit)

To make the list and operations works, I think we could "steal" the layouts and feature placements of applications like Inbox or Gmail, especially for the mobile side of the view.

Material Design guidelines for data tables are available, but there is no element for that (yet) and no details for "small screens".
I personally really like the interactions but might be wiser to start using other premade elements instead of investing a lot of time implementing one (at least for p1)

About my problem:

1. I am talking about the activity date in the main UI.
2. When I create or edit an activity, the date goes to 1 day before.

I tried from Brazil (GMT -3) and SFO (GMT -8).

as we are most likely to have a activity detail element/page instead of a dialog, implement a "draft" strategy (ex. like emails on mobile) to avoid losing partially created activities (especially accidental back button)

This feature requires:

• proper caching with SW (for local only drafts)
• Optionally a flag to store the drafts on the backend (maybe like the deleted flag) this way we could share drafts on multiple devices (ex. quick activity creation on mobile, complete on a bigger screen)

Moving from the old repo

Change the Badges in the map and the Experts list to the latest version

Issues like this one or this other make difficult to do a modal dialog, the current one isn't modal.

From Old Repo
Add to the Web App an "options" section for GDEs so that they can edit/add userIds/URL/api_keys, etc... needed as we add more sources we harvest statistics/activities from.

Currently only for the SO Id (account.so_id).

This is way we can:

• Limit the effort maintaining the GDEs MasterList
• Let the GDEs choose if they want to use a source or not (if they don't want to they can remove the Id/URL/key)

Hello!

When I go to add an activity, and want to change the date, I try to do so by selecting the date input box and trying to type the new date in.

However, I am able to delete the existing date but then unable to change it or type anything in. Whenever I try to type a number in, nothing appears in the input box. It feels like there's a pop up that should be appearing to help pick the date but that's not happening.

Cheers,

Jack

Follow up from the old repo
The avatar builder is based on Polymer 0.5 needs upgrade to 1.0 to work properly with the new Web FE.

While upgrading the element:

• Remove desaturation
• Add the ability to download the resulting image (I think it's possible but not sure how)

Configure Jenkins builds on the new cloud project.

I recently tried App Toolbox by Polymer team which has prefered icon sizes for manifest.json as these:

• 32x32 png
• 128x128 svg
• 144x144 png
• 192x192 svg
• 384x384 svg

We should update app with these.

As per title.

Use the Experts logo in the HTML5 app

From old repo
Create a Guide for new GDEs on How to Use the app at it's fullest.

Draft list of features to explain:

How to tag Posts to be recognized by the app
Why edit the activities
Explain Impact formula and why
How to Edit activities
Explain Merge, Trash and Delete
Common Problems/ Report issues
"Only GDEs and Admin can edit data" -> Google + account email <> account.email
Open GitHub issue with debug info from the Chrome Dev Tools

As done in #28, but for the master branch

Updated text from the Global Experts Program Team

One of the requests lost in the mists of time, was to show general statistics to Experts too.

We might want to discuss if this section needs to be "filtered" by category if an Expert access it (ex. I can see only Activities from Tech Experts) and/or other kind of pre filters (ex. the charts are already filtered for my area of expertise/PG).

The Global Experts Program Team needs a way to input activities in the Tracking app from various events.

The idea is to create a sheet like the one for #36, but with an additional column for you to select the Expert you are creating the activity for, directly calculate the AG and Expected Impact Value from the selected AT (combo), and assume that each activity will only have 1 activity type.

Composes of requirements 3, 4, 5, 6:
(3). The application shall require a user to define their profile on first run.
(4). The application shall define the following fields for a profile for user input:

(5). The application shall redirect to the dashboard when all information required profile information is defined.
(6). The application shall allow a user to update their profile information after first run.

Rename the button

Rename into "Who are the Google Experts?"
The button will open a new tab on https://developers.google.com/experts

diagnostics, #appindexing, #deeplinking, and #androidm are Android only activities.

In the charts/aggregated tables, they need to be aggregated with the total of #android activities.

Dev in 3 steps:

1. hardcoded group on the html5 as the tags are already being used
2. configurable behavior using the area column on the PGs to specify which "reporting tag" to use (if specified, otherwise use the original tag)
3. implement in the Polymer version

• Googler's Access
• Expert Access
• How does the App Work?
• How can I see my recorded activities?
• How do I updated missing data?
• Who are the Google Experts?

Text and Screenshots from the shared doc.

Update the first screenshot after the Menu updates

It's a pain to keep them updated

Port the old informational menus:

• How is it used
• How does it work

The old "Who are the experts" should be moved to Home.

Filter the PGs with the Expert's category.

If the user has no category (ex. Googlers, normal users watching the app) show all the PGs and show the category in the How To Use

Add a Chart with data aggregated by Category of Expertise

Add a top filter to filter activities and charts by Category of Expertise.

Follow up of this issue... which I admit I forgot about.
Luckily dom-repeat has a filter prop :)

Create a Google Sheet to provide a way to batch edit a limited set of fields of activities already recorded via the Web App or via Google+ posts.

A proposed set of fields displayed in the sheet is:

• Title
• Date (ReadOnly)
• Link (ReadOnly)
• AGType (ReadOnly)
• Metadata Impact
• MetadataImpact description (ex. N° of Download) (ReadOnly)
• ActivityId (hidden for update reference)

To support activities with multiple AGType, a single activity might need more that a record.

The sheets must enable to fetch and push updates only on activities from the Expert that is opening the Sheet.
In the top a filter to fetch data only from a range of dates.

Composes of requirements 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14:

9. The application shall define the following fields for an activity for user input:

10. The application shall allow a user to delete a master activity record.
    1. The application shall cascade to delete any associated supporting child records for an activity.
11. The application shall allow a user to update a master activity record’s data.
12. The application shall define the following fields for a supporting child record for user input:

11. The application shall allow a user to remove a support record from a parent activity.
12. The application shall allow a user to update a support record on a parent activity.

While re implementing the activity edit/create pay attention to the following:

1. prevent saving if no activity tile is provided (and other key fields) (ref)
2. show save confirmation if the activity is saved correctly

After issue 16 is implemented in the BackEnd

Update the app to use the Area of Expertise on the account and display it in the GDE list.

Add the Area of expertise to the activity objects in the generalStatistics, this way activities can be filtered and we can provide a chart by Area of Expertise (which needs to be implemented).

There is an unofficial GDE Directory API we use in https://github.com/gdg-x/frisbee application.

https://gde-map.appspot.com/gde/list

That API is old and does not remove ex-gde's.

Is there a possibility to build a GDE Directory API where it is public and outputs the current active GDEs with their information.
