Eaglescout

Updated Project: This is a continuation of an ongoing overhaul that was started in late 2025. Since the start of Flavortown, the major changes have included better-looking UI, much better performance, real offline support, and a fully rewritten ba…

This is my team’s pseudo-private scouting app for the scouting/strategizing at the FIRST Robotics competition, on which I am working on a complete overhaul.

This project uses AI

I used Claude Code for rote but complex mass edits, i.e. renaming object properties that traditional IDE tools fail to track.

Offline reports and signout work now! Offline reports work by first saving each report locally, then a background task will automatically attempt to upload them.

funny story, we went to district champs and found out that the offline persistence didn’t save properly because of the very funny way some very old network code is written, so i’ve now had to rewrite pretty much the entire client-side data and storage layer. unfortunately, all that the end user sees is a tiny cloud :(. anyways, all that’s left to do is:
1. Fix reverse synchronization of competition data
2. Fix user logout flow

added the core state management, persistence/caching, and rendering needed for seamless offline mode. when the user is online, the app will periodically cache an “offline packet” with the current competition info, form info, etc., which is then used for offline scouting. certain features like the browse tab require internet so i added feedback messages to those pages. however, a unified system to handle and render internet status is still TODO so i guess im rewriting UIList for the millionth time again :(

fixed an incredibly stupid scroll restoration error in the scouting form screen, caused by react native remounting the entire tab view component when only a tiny prop had changed

i spent a while looking through the entire app for minor UI bugs to fix. among these bugs, i found out that the scouting form’s safe view had broken itself somewhere amidst all of the changes. after a bunch of troubleshooting, it turns out that something about expoless react-native is broken 🤔

in an effort to add more native UI, i rewrote the search tab (again) to use the native system elements when possible. i also tried to migrate all of the bottom sheets to use react-navigation’s formSheet presentation, but encountered an extremely strange issue with scrolling when the iOS sheet header is enabled. i have spent way too long debugging this stupid scrolling issue; please send help

rewrote the browse/search tab for fun and profit (consistent theming, custom list picker, tanstack query, etc.)
realized I did everything on the same branch and commit as a major @react-native-community/cli –> expo migration (sorry alan)
a. note to self: stop going on side quests without stashing/committing!!!
did even more mind-numbing manual labor to separate the changes (sorry me)
made a fancy animation when you click the search button
