Create More Shapes #1

Open andywynkoop opened 5 years ago

andywynkoop commented 5 years ago

We need more shapes. I'm looking to expand this project to include a more diverse cast of characters - potentially Triangle, Octogon, and/or Heptagon.

We also need to create some new 3D shapes if possibly - loose deadline of October 2020.

While I'm thinking about it, we should probably add a Rhombus#logout method since users can currently only log in a Rhombus

If we’re going to be investing all this people-power into developing new shapes, I think it only make sense to take this opportunity to refactor the app to use Golang.

andywynkoop commented 5 years ago

David I agree. While ruby has been great for prototyping the initial shapes, I'm afraid it just won't cut the mustard once we start scaling this thing and incorporating shapes that will have larger performance issues (pentagon and parallelogram, for instance). I was going to suggest that @jenkennedy start working on the initial prototypes for #trapezoid, but maybe we should hold off on that until we can refactor the existing code-base. @jenkennedy?

Apologies folks, I was reprioritized to other projects for the past 2 years. Should we bump this and get to work on it? #trapezoid should be easy enough to get going. @andywynkoop @dobrynin

Sorry really tied up at the moment, can we set up some time to discuss this further in, say, 3 years?

jenvomo commented 3 years ago

I'll mark my calendar. I should be able to carve some time out in that timeframe.
