The objective of the "WeekendCodeSprint-AgileWebDev" project is to simulate a rapid web development process over a weekend using Agile methodologies. This project aims to deliver a prototype of a web application that showcases a dynamic, user-friendly interface, integrating basic functionalities aligned with modern web standards. The focus will be on demonstrating the effectiveness of Agile practices in managing, executing, and adapting web development tasks within a highly condensed timeframe.
- Development of a Web Application Prototype: Create a basic yet functional web application prototype. The application will feature a responsive design, user authentication, and interactive elements to engage users.
- Agile Methodology Application: Employ Agile practices including sprint planning, daily stand-ups (simulated), and sprint reviews to manage the project. This approach will highlight the adaptability and efficiency of Agile in a condensed project timeline.
- Collaborative Efforts: Utilize GitHub for all aspects of project management, including task allocation, progress tracking, and collaboration. This will also involve using pull requests for code reviews and merging, issues for task management, and projects for sprint boards.
- Documentation and Reflection: Maintain comprehensive documentation of the development process, decisions made, challenges encountered, and resolutions implemented. A final reflection will summarize the project outcomes, lessons learned, and potential areas for future development.
- Project Charter outlines the project's goals, scope, and key stakeholders.
- Initial Backlog details the project's features, tasks, and user stories.
- Sprint Planning describes the objectives, tasks, and timelines for the current sprint.
Adopt Agile methodologies, utilizing GitHub's robust features to streamline our project management process:
- Issues for detailed task tracking, ensuring transparency and effective communication among team members.
- Projects to create sprint boards, visually organizing tasks into columns like "To Do", "In Progress", and "Done" for each sprint cycle.
- Milestones to set timelines and track progress towards sprint goals, aligning our efforts with project deadlines.
The project is structured around key tasks and features, including:
- Environment Setup: Establishing a Flask development environment to kickstart our project.
- Flask Routes Creation: Developing essential routes for our application, ensuring a solid foundation for user navigation.
- Responsive Design Implementation: Crafting a user-friendly interface that adapts seamlessly across devices.
- User Authentication System: Building secure login and registration functionalities for our users.
Each task is carefully planned and executed to align with Agile sprint goals, ensuring a structured yet flexible development process.
The project will not cover in-depth backend development, focusing instead on frontend functionalities and the application of Agile methodologies to manage the development process effectively.
