Giffygram

For this project, you will be building a web application that lets people post their favorite gifs. Each post can be favorited by other users, and deleted by the original author. Users can also send direct messages to each other, and be notified when they have messages.

Starting the API

Open a terminal window and go to the giffygram directory.

1. cd api
2. cp db.json.example giffygram.json
3. json-server giffygram.json

Starting the Web Server

Open another terminal window and go to the giffygram directory.

1. cd src
2. serve

Use the assets that you created during the deconstruction phase to construct your own working version of Giffygram.

Using Github

Issue Tickets and Projects

1. Once your team defines all of the features that need to be built for the application, create an Issue for each one.
2. Create a project for your repository.
3. Create the following columns in your project
   • Backlog
   • Doing
   • Ready to test
   • Done
4. Add each issue to your Backlog column.

Each teammate then drags one issue from the Backlog to the Doing column, and assigns themselves to the issue. You are now accountable for making sure that issue gets done.

You and all of your teammates share the responsibility of getting it done. No one works alone. It doesn't matter how many of your teammates you ask for help, as long as you ensure that the issue gets completed during the sprint.
