Learning Objectives

After completing this assignment, you should:

• Understand how to design and execute a frontend application given ambiguous requirements by a client.

After completing this assignment, you should be able to:

• Create wireframes, user stories, a domain model, and a outline of objects needed as part of the planning process when making a complex frontend application.
• Execute client requirements to make a complete application.

  Details

  Deliverables

  • main.js
  • index.html

    Requirements

• No JSHint warnings or errors

  Normal Mode

A "client" has approached you and asked you to help them build a web presence. They are a local Thai restaurant called Majestic Thai. They don't know anything about the Internet, but they know they need a web page. They want an interactive menu that displays all of their food choices with prices, descriptions, etc. They also want the customer to be able to select menu items and create an order with a total price. When the user saves the order, it should create a new item on the backend so that the kitchen can process the order. The rest is open ended, so feel free to add any additional functionality you want.

Create a Backbone.js app, using Parse as a backend, to create a dynamically updating menu page. See Additional Resources for an example.

Hard Mode

• Create another page (e.g. admin.html) that gives the owner the ability to view the orders and "complete" them.
• Using Backbone's built in validation, create a modal contact form that validates the input and saves the information to a contact list.
• Using Parse authentication, make the user log in to view the admin page.
