- Fork and clone this repo.
npm install.- Read the rest of this
README.mdcarefully - it contains the requirements for the project and the grading rubric that will be used to assess it. - Create
final_projectandfinal_project_testdatabases. - Start the build process and your application with:
npm run start-dev. If you're using Windows, you may need to executenpm run start-serverandnpm run build-watchseparately (in their own terminal tabs). - If you navigate to localhost:1337, you should see some UI already :) [We've provided some code to get you started]
- Check out the mock-view in the
wireframesfolder to get an idea of what the project could look like. - Run the tests with:
npm test. Working through the tests is a good place to start! - Check out the starting seed file in
seed.js- you can run it by executingnpm run seed. You will need to seed the database once you've set up the Sequelize models.
You run StackBot Inc., a business staffed entirely by robots. Each robot may be assigned to several projects at a time. Create a RESTful web platform that allows you to manage your robots and projects. Before getting started, please carefully review the expectations as outlined below.
For this project, you must use Express to handle HTTP requests and Sequelize to interface with your database. Likewise, you must use React, Redux and React-Redux on the front-end. This means that all important state (i.e. robots and projects) must be managed by the Redux store (form data may be managed by stateful React components). Components that display robot/project data should therefore be connected to the Redux store. If you perform side-effects (like AJAX requests), you should encapsulate them in thunks.
For the requirements and rubric, refer to the following two files:
REQUIREMENTS.md- contains the functional requirements of the projectRUBRIC.md- contains the grading rubric for additional factors, as well as the formula for calculating the total score
Make sure to read them carefully!
There are some test specs already written for you to help you get started – these are just a guide and are meant to help steer you through your coding process, or to be used as reference for writing your own test specs (extra credit). Passing or not passing these specs will not affect your grade.
Take a look in the wireframes folder as a reference for how your front-end could look. Of course, you are encouraged to be creative and flex your own design muscles, but the wireframes should function as a good baseline/inspirational resource. Either way, the most important part of the project is that it works - design/appearance is extra-credit. If there ever appears to be a conflict between the wireframes and the rubric/requirements below, go with the letter of the rubric/requirements.
Please submit a short, 5 minute (max) screencast of a walk-through of the functionality for each user story in your app. E.g. for "As a user, I can create a project", you can fill out the form for creating a project and then see the new project appear in the projects list. There is no need to show us the code you wrote. We recommend using Quicktime to record the screencast (instructions on how to do that here).
Once you've recorded your screencast, please upload it to YouTube as an unlisted video. Include a link to the video at the top of your repo's README and include your repo link in the video description. This will aid us in evaluating your submission.
Well before the deadline, we recommend practicing this by recording a very short screencast and uploading it as an unlisted video. If you encounter any technical issues, reach out to us so that we can help you resolve them.
