Backend Strech MVP Proposals

Here's a list of our thoughts for the what we want to do with our group strech project. Let us know you think, and what is attainable within a week and a half!

We know we want to do something based around music, and our database will hold track info.

  • Play a song for less than 10 seconds, have the user guess the song.

  • Match an accapella version with a backing track based on beats per minute.

  • Media player for 2003 students to showcase their music.

DTR: Define the Relationship

Guiding Questions to Define The Relationship:

  • What are each of our learning goals for this project? What drives us in this project?

Figure out postgreSQL, how to deploy to Heroku, backend testing logic, general understanding of backend/frontend relationship.

  • What is your collaboration style? How do you feel about pair programming vs. divide-and-conquer approaches?

React Router Prework

This gist contains a short assignment I'd like everyone to complete before our formal lesson. The prework involves reading some of the React Router documentation, and will allow us to keep the lesson more hands on.

Instructions

  1. Fork this gist
  2. On your own copy, go through the listed readings and answer associated questions
  3. Comment a link to your forked copy on the original gist

Questions / Readings

What is a "framework?" And how does it differ from a "library?"

  • I like to think of frameworks as the overall blueprint being used to construct a website or application. A framework in itself is basically a collection of libraries that calls the code, whereas a library can be called within the code. The video by Hitesh Choudhary explained it really well where we can think of frameworks more as a school where there is a clearly defined set of rules and processes, whereas a library can be thought of more as your home where the rule structure is a little bit more loosely based and you can invoke these rules at your own will. In previous modules we have used frameworks and libraries in our testing suites, where mocha has been the testing framework being used and chai is the particular testing library.

Why should we consider using a framework over vanilla JS like you have been doing in mods 1 and 2?

  • According to our readings, the biggest benefit of using a framework is that it enables us to keep the ui

Module 2

Mod 2 Week 1: Creating Your Vision, Part I

  1. Start Where You Are (Empathize with the user -- you):
  • Health: how you answer “how are you”; intersection of physical, mental, and emotional health
    • How would you rate your overall health on a scale of 1-5?
    • 4ish
    • How do you currently make time for activities associated with your health?
    • I believe that physical health is directly linked to mental health, so if I am not doing what I can to stay physically healthy my mental health will suffer. I try to set aside at least an hour a day for physical activities and try to do

Prior to pursuing a career within the tech industry, my previous work experience contained many parrallels to the necessary skills required in software developement. In high school, I was very mechanically oriented and had a keen interest in building things, which eventually led to me joining a club where we would build and repair the schools computers. When I began college my initial major was Computer Science, but I ended up pursuing a degree in Political Science with aspirations of changing the world one day. Once I had graduated, getting straight in to the work force seemed like a very daunting prospect. In college I had learned a lot of skills directly related to the subject matter, however I was still lacking a lot of professional skills (resume development, how to interview, etc.).

At this point in my life I had a lot of internal dialogue focusing on what I wanted to do with my future. I decided to move to Breckenridge for the winter and get into an industry that I love, snowboarding. I wasn't goo

### Intention Timer ###
### Myself and my partner worked on the Intention Timer project together. Essentially it was developing a website in which
a user would submit information regarding what they wanted to do and the duration of that activity. At first glance, the
scope of what the instructors wanted us to do seemed impossible given my very limited coding skillset. However, the
biggest takeaway I got from completing the project was developing the skill to reach out to my peers if I encountered a
problem, instead of just trying to forge my way forward alone. The code that was produced wasn't just a collaboration from
soley myself and my partner, but rather a combination of ideas from upper Mod students, fellow Mod1 students, and Turing
alums.
