TAG Team is nearly completed with Sprint 1 of CS462. We’re making steady progress in developing our Text Adventure Game for Education. This project has forced me to learn a lot of new technologies and become more comfortable with some technologies that I’d worked with briefly in the past. For example, I’d had some experience with SQL in the past using PHPMyAdmin and MongoDB, but Vitaliy and I have been developing the schema for our games database using Xampp which has given me some trouble here and there. I’m also still getting comfortable with JavaScript and React but my teammates have more experience, so it’s been helpful to review the code they’ve pushed to our GitHub repository to gain a better understanding of them and how they work. I also had not worked with PHP files before but now I have a better understanding of them and how they work. They aren’t all that different from regular old HTML, fortunately. Our project has a feature where a user can scan a QR code and be taken to a specific text adventure game to play. I had no experience coding with QR codes in this way, but I got some very helpful responses in our class’s Help Desk Discussion that pointed me in the right direction. It was fun to learn and I could see that being useful for future projects I develop. I’m slowly gaining some confidence in using these technologies and I’m looking forward to testing myself more as we move into Sprint 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
