Project: Linked List

Group Member Names: Brandon, Jesse

Project Expectations: What does each group member hope to get out of this project?

Reach all requirements of phase 3 and try for phase 4 if things are polished with phase 3. Do it piece by piece, get spec first. Deeper understanding of JavaScript.

Goals and expectations:

Reach all requirements of phase 3. Communicate clearly and get the project done efficently. Solidify understanding of JavaScript.

Team strengths:

Balance deliberative and activator strengths to get things done quickly and accurately. Encourage each other, build each other up. If we get stuck, have a plan on how to get unstuck.

How to overcome obstacles:

Be willing to reach out for help with pairing. Communicate before we schedule pairings to make sure we can both be there. Keep communication open to stay on the same page with progress. Be transparent with schedules to avoid conflicts and last minute issues.

Schedule Expectations (When are we available to work together and individually?):

Open to planning different times as necessary. Try remote pairing to be able to work individually when our schedules don't match. Plan blocks to meet up on weekend in advance.

Communication Expectations (How and often will we communicate? How do we keep lines of communication open?):

Use text and Slack to stay in touch about progress. Communicate about shared pairings. Talk about gits and branches when we commit them and push them.

Abilities Expectations (Technical strengths and areas for desired improvement):

Both strong in HTML and CSS. Both would like to improve understanding of JavaScript and ability to write it. Formulate opinion on using jQuery.

Workload Expectations (What features do we each want to work on?):

TBD

Workflow Expectations (Git workflow/Tools/Code Review/Reviewing Pull Requests):

Keep a steady pace. Be patient with each other as we fully figure out how to use git. Commit more than we think we should to practice using git and github.

Expectations for giving and receiving feedback:

Be mindful of each other's approaches. Communicate reasons for doing things certain ways. Be supportive instead of destructive.

Agenda to discuss project launch:

Both meet with pairing on Friday to get started on small details. Work on html structure and jQuery/functionality ideas Saturday. Meet to style divide functionality Sunday afternoon. Joint pairing at lunch Monday.

Ideas:

Get step by step done. Have layout for desktop and mobile ready by Monday. Divide and conquer on functionality. If something makes sense to one person, let them run with it.

Tools:

Try Slack screen sharing. Both get linter Text and Slack for communication
