GO FORTH AND CODE
Start your final projects this weekend! Some good practices to keep in mind:
- Follow your backlog. Develop the features in order, and only those features. It's really easy to get carried away working on the wrong things—we chose the things we chose for a reason, so let's get them done.
- Create your first models / migrations on one computer. Once you've agreed on the first models, attributes, and created the migrations, only then push your code and pull on the other computers. This means you guys are starting on the same page. Future migrations can be created on anyone's computer.
- Don't go too in-depth too fast. Instead of building a feature to completion, with perfect style and functionality, get your whole app working first. Then go back and improve each feature one by one.
