Week 15 – Budget Alerts & Front-End Integration

Alberto

✅ Hooked budget-limit signals into Django messages framework for in-app toasts.

✅ Styled warning & error alerts in the budgets dashboard per design spec.

❗ Challenge: Mobile layout breaks when multiple alerts stack vertically.

📌 Plan: Refactor alert container to a swipe-dismiss pattern and test responsive behavior.

Martín

✅ Wired front-end JS to toggle budget-alert pop-ups and auto-dismiss after 5 seconds.

✅ Added end-to-end tests simulating budget thresholds at 80% and 100%.

❗ Challenge: Flaky tests due to timing of JS timers.

📌 Plan: Mock timers in tests and stabilize the alert-dismiss logic by mid-week.
