### WI State Leadership Conference

1st Place\
Used release 0.1.1\
[Here](SLC) are my score sheets.

Questions asked (with my answers):

**Q**: Why did you decide to use the apps (framework and tools I assume) you used?\
**A**: I decided to use Flutter primarily because of its cross-platform capabilities and its integration with the [Material design specification](https://m3.material.io/). I also decided to use it because I had some previous experience with Flutter and Dart, and Dart is somewhat similar to Java which I also had experience with.

This one seems to just be a clarification for the `User input is validated` category of the [scoring sheet](https://connect.fbla.org/headquarters/files/High%20School%20Competitive%20Events%20Resources/Individual%20Guidelines/Presentation%20Events/Coding--Programming.pdf) (page 5-6)\
**Q**: You mentioned that you validated that the description [of the business] is required, do you validate all the inputs or just that?\
**A**: I validate that all of the required fields are inputted, and I also check for a valid email address and website format.

This seems to be for the [scoring sheet](https://connect.fbla.org/headquarters/files/High%20School%20Competitive%20Events%20Resources/Individual%20Guidelines/Presentation%20Events/Coding--Programming.pdf) (page 5-6) `Code Quality` section.\
While looking through a binder of the presentation and source code:\
**Q**: Is your source code all properly commented?\
**A**: While it is hard to comment UI code because of the nature of it, I did my best to use comments where applicable, and I also provide extensive documentation of the installation and usage of the app in the documentation in the README files.
