Group Milestone - Implementation (Sprint 1)

[realdlee]

Please review @codepath @codepathreview

We spent the first week developing our map-based app with the core map foundation, managing the key user states (looking, navigating, parked), and setting up Parse server. A user can add new parking spaces to the map and view parking space details.

Sprint 1 Walkthrough

[codepathreview]

:+1: Nice work creating wire-frames and implementing substantial stories for sprint 1. Great to see the basic screens and flow coming along well. Few notes to mention:

• It is important create tasks for each of your stories/features and have them assigned to team members in the form of issues. Please take care of this before you work on sprint 2.
• Consider diving a bigger parent task into a number of smaller subtasks - provides a better picture of the progress on the issue.
• Work load needs to be divided equally among all members of the team. This is critical in working as a team and also gives equal learning opportunity to everyone involved. Good to see everyone is contributing to the project.
• Group projects can reinforce skills that are relevant to both group and individual work including the ability to plan and manage time. For this reason, it is imperative that you group all detailed issues into milestones representing sprints so that its easier for you to track progress of the project.
• Good to see that your team created regular commits to sync up your code to avoid having multiple conflicts at the end.
• Consider creating tasks to QA the app a few times to check the basic flow. Integration testing will especially be important for this project since each team member is working on a separate module. The best part is seeing it all come together into a polished app.
• Consider creating group milestones/pull requests to better track your progress and review each others code.

Good to see the basic flow coming along well. Please take notes of these points and improve upon the same in the next sprint. Look forward to the rest of the functionality and improvement on the core flows by the end of the Sprint 2 so you can have enough time to add UI polish and advanced nice-to-have features later on. It is those little extra things you do that make everything feel more polished and desirable to use.
