What did I do this past week?

This past week I spent most of my time getting caught up with school. I didn’t have a lot of time over spring break to contribute to the first phase of the project so I also devoted most of my time to that. I’ve been working with the front end for the project so I feel as thought I am getting a better grasp on JavaScript, particularly React.

What’s in my way?

I have a couple other group projects that I need to divide my time between so it will be tricky finding the right balance. I want to dedicate enough time for phase two of this project as I don’t want it to come down to the last minute. Furthermore, I will need to work together with my team to figure out how we will approach this second phase.

What will I do next week?

I plan on getting a head start on the second phase of the project. I will need to iron out some issues in our current front end related to styling. Also, we need to figure out how to integrate grid cells and sorting/filtering so that will take some time.

What’s my experience of the class?

I enjoyed completing the first phase of the project. I think that I learned quite a bit and my team was able to work together to create a deliverable from scratch in a limited time so that was pretty satisfying. I am interested to see how the next phases of the project will build upon itself.

Mozilla has detailed documentation available that is useful to leverage for the type of work we are doing.
