Tickets I’ve been working on this week,

To start off the week I had everything end to end implemented properly in my local machine. Even though this is not how I normally work, because I had to do a bit of a learning curve and I didn’t know which way would be the best, I had to try all the possible ways of implementing this feature out from end to end before sending a pull request. Just to make sure the path I chose to complete the feature is compatible. After developing like this for weeks I had a quite a lot of changes in my local repoistory. I had to break down the previous PR I had sent into few smaller PRs and send them again one after the other, so the reviewing of the changes and maintaining the commit history of the project would happen properly, adhering to the open source standards.
