I am writing to highly recommend Khora for her exceptional contributions and leadership on our recent project. Khora demonstrated outstanding technical expertise and a strong commitment to teamwork. As the team lead, Khora managed communications effectively between team, and I, ensuring everyone was on the same page and project goals were met efficiently. She provided invaluable assistance to her team members, particularly in documenting critical components such as the Amplify structure, how to connect Amplify to the backend, and the process for deploying frontend code from GitHub to Amplify. Regarding her other contributions, she was responsible for the API function migration. She independently refactored the relevant code, deployed it to the API Gateway and AWS Lambda, and configured the necessary test cases. She was also pleased to report that all tests passed successfully, confirming the successful migration. Additionally, she wrote the documentation for this part of the project independently. Khora's ability to lead, communicate, and provide technical support was instrumental in the success of our project. Her dedication, skills, and teamwork make her a valuable asset to any team. I highly recommend Khora for any future endeavours she chooses to pursue.

Team feedback
Overall, despite the challenges we all had whether the experience of each student to team members’ availability. Team did well. Mithun worked on the S3 storage migration, however due to some health issues he couldn’t finish what’s started. Boris stepped in and helped finish the S3 storage part. Akram did an excellent job on the database migration. He figured out a doable approach, wrote that section of the documentation independently, and communicated his thoughts clearly. Daniel handled the authentication migration documentation independently. Not the talkative type in the team but he did manage to complete the part assigned to him. Boris initially worked with Khora on the API function migration, double confirming that Khora’s solutions were workable. Later, he assisted Mithun with the S3 storage migration and successfully migrated the static data from Firebase to S3. He put in a lot of hard work on this which is SO MUCH appreciated! Beibei and Deborah focused on the Amplify and React frontend part. They were quite junior to this area. Hence, they contributed a bit less compared to others, and Khora helped them a lot with their part of the documentation, such as the amplify structure, how to connect amplify to the backend, how to deploy frontend code from github to amplify, etc. Again, amazing work by Khora! Last but not least Khora was responsible for the API function migration. She has refactored that part of codes, put them on API gateway and AWS Lambda, configured the test case. They have all passed the test so the migration was successful. She wrote this part of documentation independently. Also, she did an amazing job managing the team and keeping me posted throughout the process. I highly appreciated this and recommend her any project she would wish to work on - as there is nothing she can do as long as she puts her mind to it!
