1389 Scouting App

When designing this app, we had a few capabilities that we believed were primary goals

  1. Offline and Online Capability

    • Push data when online
    • Hold data when offline
  2. Mac, Windows, and Linux Compatibility

    • We settled on a CLI, BASH (Bourne Again Shell) - based app because it was the most simple and straightforward
    • The scripts will work regardless of your distro / OS
  3. Be Free and Open-Source

    • All code and data is available on github under the team1389 organization
  4. Be easily adaptable for other, future games

    • V1.0 - PowerUp
    • V2.0 - Destination: Deep Space
  5. Be Simple and Easy to Understand

    • By relying on basic letter and number commands, we keep it as simple as possible
    • All code is thoroughly commented and there is documentation available for the entire app
  6. Be programmed and installed in a relatively short time period

    • The basic prompts allow for easy swapping, from the variable names to the prompt names
    • We wanted our new scouts to be able to load the app quickly, from load-in --> Opening Ceremonies
