All team members present for the retrospective. Overview here. Met in small groups during the week, based on interest in frontend/backend/ML for this term.
Meeting in small subteams, we were able to have more focused/productive conversations about next steps
Kevin attended all three meetings, made sure that the goals of each sub-team were well-aligned
Cleaned up and merged code from Technigala - at a good place to start developing new features
Working out some high-level implementation details for our Figma
What didn't
Not having issues created (but this was expected, because we were still trying to figure out what each team's next steps were based on the new direction of our product)
Self-assessment on progress
Where are you in relation to progress towards product and milestones?
Frontend might be a little behind
Backend has half of watch history implemented
Give an estimate of how far towards your goals you are, do you think you're on track?
Put in new issues that will help us get on track
Lay out each of the following weeks till end of term with brief goals for each
Current week:
Web-scraping, data dashboard (backend)
New explore and playlist API endpoints (backend)
Recommendation
Whitespace (ML)
NGINX
New watch (frontend)
Main explore page (frontend)
Additional notes
Internal share --> stretch
Make it more goal-oriented
Evaluation/testing/validation/feedback - are we meeting our/the users' goals?
Some ideas: measuring retention/playlist, swipe rate, like/dislike, asking for feedback 5-10 videos later
How do people feel after a session? (Do they feel good about spending time on the app in retrospect?)
