Reflection
I learned about project management and played around with Javascript. Project management is really hard, you need to assign the right amount of workload to different team member, and communicate with your teammates frequently. For most of the time, my team members finish the task I assigned on time, but sometimes I have to check the quality and change it myself. Over time, we become more and more collaborative and we are able to finish most of the sprints and features.
This project was an eye opener for me since this was the first time I have ever experienced such a strong team development process. I have only had little exposure to front end development when creating my website, but now I feel way more confident in my skills and I am hoping to be able to use them more. I felt like we packed the most work we could into such a time period but I definitely think that we could have done more if we had more time. I experienced new aspects of web development like FontAwesome and JQuery and have propounded my bases in CSS/HTML.
This project helped me to understand SDLC and the Agile Scrum method. I also learned about the framework Bootstrap and enhanced my knowledge of Javascript, HTML, and CSS. While I didn’t make too many direct changes to the code, I found some initial example code that we based the game on and I found all of the sounds for the game (direction, gameover, eat apple, etc.). The project also improved my understanding of GitHub and how to collaborate with others. I think that we were able to complete most of our goals and I consider the project a success.
It was an interesting project, as it was rather short. However, it did aid my understanding of the SDLC, by going through it myself. In terms of the group work, I was able to look for some source code to get some inspiration in the beginning, learn the basics of GitHub, and design some logo for the group. Overall, though I didn't contribute greatly to the coding process itself, I was able to get a better grasp of the structure of the code just by looking at it, and trying to understand it.
