Discuss whether or not to Reactify this app #13

Closed mmmavis closed 8 years ago

mmmavis commented 8 years ago

Currently this app is based on ~500 line of vanilla JS code .js file. This works good with the prototype features we have & linkage with Google Spreadsheet. As this project involves more features will be added and we might switch to use a real database. Let's discuss whether or not to Reactify this app. And if we are doing it, should we tackle it now or at a later stage.

Some things to take into account:

My first instinct is that If we're going to "reactify" network-pulse, we'll want to do it before building out more features, otherwise we're just making things harder for us in the future.

mmmavis commented 8 years ago

@xmatthewx I'm curious to know if we have a roadmap or milestones for this project. Is there any deadline we are trying to meet?

xmatthewx commented 8 years ago

I've added milestones to the repo. Let's keep our eye on the deliverables in the kickoff ticket (#5). One of the deliverables is a proposed roadmap.

mmmavis commented 8 years ago

Alright, let's make the "whether or not to Reactify" decision after this heartbeat then. I will focus on other deliverables for this milestone for now.

I'm going to be updating the "Some things to take into account" list in the first comment. Free feel to add more if you think of any!

server

If this get wrapped in a server, I'd like it to be an express server!

database

It'd be cool if we use an ORM that can gracefully fall back on sqlite for local dev

mmmavis commented 8 years ago

Closing. This is not something we are going to tackle for this phrase 😜 We'll continue the discussion after we ship the MVP and learn from our users.

simonwex commented 8 years ago

@mmmavis could you file a ticket to do this post-mvp?

mmmavis commented 8 years ago

@simonwex I created another ticket to discuss about the same matter 2 weeks ago. The decision was to hold off until we learn more from the users & decide whether or not we will be continuing working on this prototype.

xmatthewx commented 8 years ago

Worth mentioning @simonwex that @mmmavis has modularized our code to simplify a refactor if we do that later.
