Final Project:

 

 

 

Kids Magazine App

 

Soccer Magazine

This idea was brought to us by a local entrepreneur who wanted a fun way for his son to learn about soccer.

 

This app lets children read short paragraphs and asks them a question about what they just read. The Homepage lists several issues containing articles and quizzes.

 

 

 

  • User

    • 2 roles: admin & user
    • username, password, email, birthday, admin

  • Issue

    • contains many articles
    • title, date, description, avatar
  • Article
    • belongs to an issue, has a quiz
    • title, date, content
  • ​Quiz
    • belongs to an article
    • question, correct answer, video

Teamwork

Let's break into pairs!

 

GOOOOOOOOAAAL!

$ git checkout -b jp-awesome-ui

Git Branch

Make sure you have the latest version of the soccer app pulled down from the repo:

Give yourself an awesome team name and branch from your soccer application using "team-name-ui"

 

$ git pull origin master
$ git branch

* jp-awesome-ui
  master

Your Team Branch

Now you you can push to your own private branch without interrupting the functioning code on "master." Running git branch will illustrate this.

Continue adding and committing as usual but  push to your branch name instead of "master" like so:

$ git push origin jp-awesome-ui

Show and Tell

At the end of class we'll have a show and tell. Then we'll vote on whose site looks the best and we'll merge it back into master! 

If there's time let's shoot this up to production (heroku)!
