The feature is to create an automation process for the skills section in the sidebar of the application. This will dynamically update the skills displayed based on predefined criteria or data sources.
Why we need the feature
Automating the skills section will ensure that the information is always up-to-date without requiring manual updates. This is particularly useful for users who frequently acquire new skills or need to highlight different skills for different contexts. It enhances user experience by providing relevant and current information.
How to implement and why
Data Source Integration: Identify a reliable data source or API that contains the user's skills information. This could be a JSON file, a database, or an external API. Implement a service to fetch this data.
Data Parsing and Transformation: Develop a parser to transform the fetched data into a format suitable for display in the sidebar. This may involve filtering, sorting, or categorizing the skills.
UI Component Update: Modify the sidebar component in index.html to dynamically render the skills based on the parsed data. Use JavaScript or a front-end framework to bind the data to the UI.
Testing and Validation: Ensure that the automation works correctly by testing with different data sets. Validate that the skills are displayed correctly and update in real-time as the data source changes.
Documentation: Update the README.md to include instructions on how to configure and use the skills automation feature.
About backward compatibility
Backward compatibility should be maintained to ensure that users who do not wish to use the automation feature can still manually update their skills section. This can be achieved by providing a toggle or configuration option to enable or disable the automation.
