Initiate Colorado DTR

DTR

Project: Initiate Colorado

Group Member Names: Rostam Mahabadi, Michelle Foley, Mariana Cid, Danny Ramos, Alex Eickelman, Charles Wefso

Goals and Expectations for the Project:

  • Rostam Mahabadi: Get some experience in another framework/language/testing framework. Gain some understanding about the ballot process. Write a good ReadMe section and some practice with that. Additionally, improve upon my experience with GitHub Project board.
  • Michelle Foley: PYTHON!! Have a decent number of commits
  • Mariana Cid: Learn how to work in a bigger group and explore a new language.
  • Danny Ramos: Want to explore Python to boost up that resume. I would also like to be part of demo comp. Last mod we didnt sign up and that was a big regret for the group.
  • Alex Eickelman: Solidify my understanding of connecting backend and front end frameworks. Hone my skills related to building a React application, and develop a PWA.
  • Charles Wefso: Build a project with a larger group, build a PWA, have a project I’m excited to show off in a portfolio.

Team strengths & collaboration styles:

  • Rostam Mahabadi: Divide and conquer/paired programming ( both are great and really enjoy) Over Communicate, being available at ANY time. Really good at shotgunning.
  • Michelle Foley: Mediator, debugging, and I like paired programming but divide and conquer is a nice break from zoom.
  • Mariana Cid: Debugging and both working independently as well as in a group/paired.
  • Danny Ramos: Available whenever. Creating space for everyone. Really into researching and finding resources. Fun working environment. Managing project board.
  • Alex Eickelman: Feel like I have a solid understanding of the React framework, but not as solid using Redux. I also want to level up my styling skills are a little rusty as well, so would love to have some time dedicated to making the application look nice.
  • Charles Wefso: I am a good writer, I am very organized and I am really good at looking at other people’s code and helping them figure out what is broken.

Communication Expectations (How and often will we communicate?)

Rostam - I would like to talk every day (morning or afternoon is fine) Michelle - Mariana - Everyday would like to check-in see what plans are and stuff. Over Communication!! Danny - I like over communicating Alex - Daily check-ins at the least between front-end and back-end teams. Ideally pair with Charles initially to set up a template of how each page should look, then divide and conquer. Charles - Daily standups/check-ins, slack/zoom Tuple for pairing. Pair with Alex for page design and set-up.

Feedback Expectations:

Rostam - frequent and early communication. Over communicate. -Michelle - Honest and direct. +1 over communicate Mariana - Honest feedback Danny - Im all about giving feedback and receiving it. Alex - Direct and honest feedback, do not need to sugar coat it. Charles - Frequent (speak up sooner than later.) Friendly (be positive about feedback.) Forward (be straightforward about it.)

Abilities & Growth Expectations (Technical strengths and areas for desired improvement):

  • Rostam Mahabadi: Javascript, python (areas for improvement).
  • Michelle Foley: beginner to moderate understanding of Python.
  • Mariana Cid: Python, and more understanding of the frontend
  • Danny Ramos: I would like to explore Python and have a solid understanding by the end of the project.
  • Alex Eickelman: Better understanding of middleware, and how we connect front end and back end.
  • Charles Wefso: React (strong) Redux (basic understanding). I want to build a PWA from a React App.

Workload Expectations (What features do we each want to work on?):

  • Rostam Mahabadi: Both front and back end features
  • Michelle Foley: Backend, maybe some design
  • Mariana Cid: Backend (maybe pair with frontend on some stuff)
  • Danny Ramos: Both front and back end features. (Definitely want to pair on scraping)
  • Alex Eickelman: Front end, implementing a PWA
  • Charles Wefso: Front end, ServiceWorker stuff for PWA

Workflow Expectations (Git workflow/Tools/Code Review/Reviewing Pull Requests/Debugging and Problem-solving Techniques):

Pairing, code reviews and reaching out to mentors and other student.
