Development Logs

Community Bonding Period, May 4th – May 28th

Got a bit familiar with CMake
Spoke with my mentor on how to proceed with things moving ahead
Made a note of all the current libraries and their last supported version for Python2
Got more familiar with c++ part of the codebase

Appleseed gave some build errors which previously weren't there, maybe it happened because I have accidentally moved some files
I have my semester end exam on May 30th, couldn't focus on this because of that. Will try to fix it the next day.

Fixed the error, had to clear the path to dependencies and add them again. The root cause is still unknown, but hopefully it doesn't occur again.
Made changes to the development environment using python poetry (helps manage virtual environments better)
UPDATE: will work on updating build logic for now, once I have enough time (i.e after my final exams are over on june 8th) I will switch the development environment to Linux as that will make things a lot easier for me.

Updated the runtestsuite.py file to python3
Updated png.py file to python3, replaced all the map functions present in the file with list comprehension, updated the usage of the next() method and few other changes
