Each team of students will be assigned one of the following projects to complete. Though the broad brush-strokes are laid out for you here, the details are up to you, so feel free to get as creative as you like!
Note: As in previous projects, only shoot for Reach Goals once you've satisfied the core requirements.
Besides finishing WDI, you surely have one or two things you'd love to do with your life. Let's get 'em on paper! You could integrate with a third-party location-based API to allow users to search for a location or venue to add to their bucket list items.
Reach Goal: Add social features to your site, such as following other users. Allow users to make certain list items public, but default to private.
Create an e-commerce site for famed retail giant, Nozama.com! Naturally, the site will need to allow customers to see all of Nozama's products, add those items to a shopping cart, and purchase them using Stripe. In addition, by logging in, customers should be able to keep track of their purchases by looking at their past orders.
Reach Goal: Build a search feature so that people can search for specific products by name.
Make an app that can be used to create custom surveys (for instance, asking "what should we eat for lunch today?" or "On a scale of 0-5, how well did you understand what we just learned?") and collect the responses on a dashboard for that particular survey. Each live survey should be hosted at a unique, randomly-generated URL.
Reach Goal: Make the dashboard real-time, so you can see answers pour in as they're completed.
Build a Dropbox-like app that allows users to upload files into a virtual file system. Ordinary users can only read/download a file where as Owners can do anything to the files they own. In addition to keeping track of file structure, this app should associate meta-data with each file, including things like:
- date created/uploaded
- date modified
- owner (person who uploaded the file)
- tags
Reach Goal: Implement a simple permissions system for your CMS:
- 'collaborators' can be chosen; they have permission to read from and write to files.
Build an app to build a website! Your app must allow non-technical users to write blog posts and pages for the site. When a visitor visits your site, they should see content. When a user logs in, they should see a dashboard that lets them create and edit new posts or pages.
Reach Goal: Implement authorization. Administrators should be able to delete pages or posts, while normal users should be able to edit pages. Only administrators can publish a new post, normal users can only save drafts.
