Project #3: Group Project

Overview

For your 3rd project, you will be collaborating to make an application using Angular. Use your imagination! You get to create whatever you want for this app. Everyone will get a chance to be creative, and work through some really tough programming challenges, but you'll have a partner to help you carry the load.

Technical Requirements

Your app must:

Use a Angular as a front-end framework.
Reference a third-party API.
Be deployed online where the rest of the world can access it.

Requirements before you get started

Please put these in your `README.md` file:

User Stories -
Wireframes - One for each page / view of your application.
MVP - A minimum viable product which has just those core features sufficient to deploy the product, and no more.
Stretch Goals
Github Repo and use of branches - This should be outside of your wdi-remote class repo. One person should create this and then make their partner a "Contributor".

Once your project is approved

Creat a daily tracker with a day-by-day breakdown of what features will be worked on to meet the MVP and any stretch goals that you would like to tackle

Suggestions on how to get started

Break the project down into different components (data, presentation, views, style, DOM manipulation) and brainstorm each component individually.
Use your Development Tools (console.log, inspector, alert statements, etc) to debug and solve problems
Work through the lessons in class for help and inspiration! Think about adding relevant code each day; COMMIT OFTEN. We will be looking at your commit dates and comments are part of your scoring.
Commit early, commit often. Don’t be afraid to break something because you can always go back in time to a previous version.
Consult documentation resources (MDN, jQuery, etc.) at home to better understand what you’ll be getting into.
Don’t be afraid to write code that you know you will have to remove later.

Deliverables

By the time the project is over, we will expect the following from you:

A working app, built by you, hosted somewhere on the internet
A link to your hosted working app
A git repository hosted on Github NOT inside your wdi-remote repository. Frequent commits dating back to the very beginning of the project
A readme.md file with explanations of the technologies used, the approach taken, a link to your live site, a link to your daily tracker, your user stories, mvp, stretch goals, installation instructions, unsolved problems, etc.

Most importantly a technical demonstration of your app which:

Is 5 minutes in length
Shows off all features of the app
Explains the technical details
Explains the technical challenges
Explains which improvements you might make

Project Feedback + Evaluation

Project Workflow: Do you have a Github respository for your project (not inside your wdi-remote repo)? Did you complete the user stories, wireframes, and the README.md file as specified above? Did you use source control (Github commits) as expected for the phase of the program you’re in (detailed above)?
Technical Requirements: Did you deliver a project that met all the technical requirements? Given what the class has covered so far, did you build something that was reasonably complex?
Creativity: Did you add a personal spin or creative element into your project submission? Did you deliver something of value to the end user (not just a login button and an index page)?
Code Quality: Did you follow code style guidance and best practices covered in class, such as spacing, modularity, and semantic naming? Did you comment your code as your instructors have in class?
Deployment: Did you deploy your application to a public url using GitHub Pages?

Total: Your instructors will give you a total score on your project between:

Score	Category	Expectation	Expectation	Expectation	Expectation	Expectation
6	Project Workflow	Do you have a Github respository for your project (not inside your wdi-remote repo)?	Did you complete the user stories and are they in your Github issues (2 points)	wireframes	README.md with specified information	source control with Github (commits)
6	Technical Requirements	Did you deliver a project that met all the technical requirements? (discussed in your MVP (a score between 1-3 will be given))	Given what the class has covered so far, did you build something that was reasonably complex? (complexity will be given a grade 1-3)
2	Creativity	Did you add a personal spin or creative element into your project submission?	Did you deliver something of value to the end user (not just a login button and an index page)?
2	Code Quality	Did you follow code style guidance and best practices covered in class, such as spacing, modularity, and semantic naming?	Did you comment your code as your instructors have in class?
2	Deployment	Did you deploy your application to a public url using GitHub Pages?
2	Technical demonstration	Is 5 minutes in length & shows off all the features of your app.	Expalins technical details, technical challenges, and any improvements you might make.
Maximum possible points	20

Project Week

Attendance

You are required to be present by 10:00 am EDT each day during the project.

Standups

We will have student-run stand-ups each morning at 10:15 am EDT where you will answer the following questions:

What did I work on yesterday
What am i trying to get done today
What is preventing me from getting this done.

This meeting should take no longer than 15 minutes.

If you have ideas on how you can help a fellow-student with work that they are stuck on, please follow-up with information AFTER the stand up.

Meetings with instructors

Your instructor will contact you to setup a meeting time

Tuesday, June 7
15 minute meeting to get your project approved. You will come with your MVP and an initial wireframe.

Wedesday, June 8
15 minute progress check-in

Thursday, June 9
Whole class instruction on how to deploy your project to the world wide web.

Friday, June 10
15 minute check in to see where you are before you go into the weekend. Help you to decide what to finish and what features should be stretch goals.

Where to go for help during project week

Seek out help online
Seek out help with your classmates
Seek out help with Derek (TA)
Submit a Github issue on the wdi-remote class Github account to receive help from an instructor

Formatting your GitHub Issue for wdi-remote to ask for help

PUSH OFTEN! Your code on GitHub should be up to date. Submiting an issue and linking us to old, out-of-date code will hinder the process.

WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO SOLVE:

Write a detailed explanation of the feature or user story you're working on.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE BUG/ERROR:

A detailed description of the problem, the bug, and/or the error. This means: the full steps to reproduce, a link to the file on github, and the line number of where the relavent code is. The error(s) returned, copy and pasted/typed out/screenshot, not paraphrased.
If there is other code in a different file that is also essential to the functioning of the code that currently works point us to that and explain the relationship.

WHAT I'VE TRIED

List everything you've done to solve the bug on your own in detail. list all resources you've looked up and tried to implement and provide links. Providing code if you have it surrounded by the md syntax to display nicely is very helpful.

QUESTION

After going through all this what is your questions specifically, more specifically than how can I make this work?
