This week we started to get more in depth on the project. We have decided on a framework and have begun to diagram various portions of the application. At least at the beginning, I will be working mainly on the front end. I don’t have a ton of front end experience but am excited to learn.
For the front-end, our group decided to use React. However, none of us know React so that could present a few bumps in the road. React seems like it is quite popular in the industry which is the reason we chose to use it.
So far I have done some of the mock ups for the pages on the site. A new tool I have been using is called Figma. This tool is also fairly popular in the industry so I figured it would solid for creating layouts. However, the free version only allows for the creation of three pages. I only realized this after I created the third page. The mock up of the landing page can be seen below.
I am also taking CS344 this semester, which has been going well so far.
That’s all for now, thanks for reading!
