Graphical Interface: Honestly, developing desktop applications with JavaFX is much better than Swing. HTML is very suitable for describing graphical interfaces, and CSS can easily implement theme switching (The project's technology choices were limited, otherwise, using Electron might have resulted in a better visual interface).

Framework Design: Proper use of object-oriented principles and some design patterns can balance simplicity and extensibility. Both design and coding are very important.

Network Design: There are indeed many exceptions and special states that need to be handled in network design. It is essential to first sort out the possible states during network interaction and determine specific handling methods before starting to write code. During development, we encountered the "packet sticking problem". After studying computer networks, we better understood the stream transmission characteristics of TCP, and realized the need to add corresponding headers/footers for segmentation to solve this "problem".

Others: The development of many small features was actually quite fast (it seems that a lot of functional blocks were completed in one week according to the log), but thorough testing (preferably writing automated test cases) is required to ensure the quality of the program.

This is probably the first time I have implemented a project with so many features from scratch. Many thanks to my partner @Super for working together to complete this project.

I didn't expect to accomplish so much in five weeks. It was a lot of work, but it paid off in the end.

The reference scoring standards from previous years were very detailed, essentially guiding the project's requirements ( clear requirements seem to be the most critical part of the development process, and having this reference was quite convenient).

Although the final product still has many shortcomings, we will continue to work hard and hope to do better in future projects.

We hope you enjoy your time with this game!

图形化界面：说实在做桌面JavaFX还是比Swing来的要好用的，HTML很适合用于描述图形化界面，CSS也能很方便地实现 主题风格的切换（不过主要是project对技术选型有限制，否则用Electron可能能够做出效果更好的视觉界面）

框架设计：用好面向对象以及一些设计模式能够平衡好简洁与可扩展性，设计和编码都是很重要的

网络设计：网络要处理的异常与特殊状态之类的真挺多的，还是要先梳理网络交互过程中的可能状态以及确定具体处理方式 再开始写代码。在开发过程中遇到了“粘包问题”，但其实学了计网之后才更加清晰的理解了TCP的流式传输特性，需要添加 对应的包头/尾以进行分割

其它：许多小功能的开发其实速度还是挺快的（似乎log里面有一周速通了很多功能块），不过还是需要充分的测试（最好是 编写可自动化运行的测试用例）才能保证程序的质量

应该是第一次从零开始实现了包含了这么多功能的项目，十分感谢我的搭档@Super能够一起完成这个项目。

没想到五周时间能做出这么多东西（虽然其实很多工作都是在中后期开始一天实现的一个功能（（

Reference的往年评分标准非常详细，基本上就给project实现什么需求指定了一个方向 (感觉明确需求反而可能是开发过程中最重要的一环， project有这个参考挺省事的((x

虽然最后的成品还有很多不足，但是我们会继续努力，希望能够在未来的项目中做得更好。希望您能够在这个游戏中度过愉快的时光！
