After making some stylistic changes, people were overall pleased with the app. As it is something I'll be revising upon graduation, to add more functionality and flair, people were understanding that this is a beta release. Still some browser issues, Safari has it's own vendor prefixes, etc, so need to work on those. |

My app is (tentatively) called Movie Review Club. | |
Repo for front end: https://github.com/grittygrady/movie-reviews-clientV1 | |
Static site @ https://movie-reviews-client-v1.vercel.app/ | |
I sent the link to a few friends and relatives. Their main concerns were styling (even if told to ignore styling, I've found that people get hung up on it). Also, there is a problem with my route for getting a review by id; I'd built the static app using a virtual json server, I refactored it to only use state. Mobile issues were primarily the text on the navbar. Something to work on later! I wanted to challenge myself to use only functional components and custom hooks, however I got a little ahead of myself and started thinking of connecting it to the back end too early on. I will talk to my mentor about this tomorrow. Once the real API is hooked up, my initial, custom hook based system should work fine. | |
Cheers! |

My idea is a very simple one, a group oriented movie review app, so friends can see what each other have been watching. There will not be user authentication in this app* (yet!) but that will be implemented in the final iteration of the app. | |
Cheers! | |
*My mentor said that in previous versions of the course user authentication was only required in one capstone, and I did in my previous. Also, the module on user authentication has been removed from the curriculum, so my ASM said i shouldn't be of concern, particularly given my time constraint. My mentor has advised to simply focus on writing clean, readable code, keep it simple and execute well. |

I get up pretty early, so my schedule may be a bit different from others. | |
Morning A: (730 - 930am) 2 hours applying for jobs or 5 jobs, whichever comes first. Use remaining time to revise cover letter, analyze responses, etc. | |
Morning B: (930am - 1230pm) Work on side projects, leetcode, etc to keep skills sharp. | |
1230 - 1:15 - Lunch, if time permits a quick walk. | |
Afternoon: (130 - 330pm) Networking, cold outreach, finding events (currently a bit difficult due to covid lockdown in CA). |

I collect vinyl records, and when I go record shopping, I always completely blank on what records I've been on the lookout for. | |
I think an app dedicated to cataloguing a user's "wish list" would be something useful to many vinyl collectors. | |
Cheers! |
