CST 499 - Week 11

-

This week I took the time to review reported issues on GitHub and select a few to implement/fix.  I was mainly looking for issues related to the version 1.1 release as these are essential for the next release of OED.  Currently, I am working on a feature that allows users to easily copy a popup notification or error message as these can be important and need to be recorded.  I am testing different ways to implement this for the best user experience.  Throughout the rest of this week and next, I plan to continue to work on issues related to the version 1.1 release as well as submit a pull request to have my changes and additions reviewed.

This week I was troubleshooting an issue that arose from the previous week's work.  The layout of the page was affected forcing all of the content to the bottom of the page rather than the top.  This was fixed by implementing CSS directly into the div tag as I did not want to change any of the global CSS files.  Next, I plan on looking through the issues page and selecting some bugs/features to implement.  I did not face any challenges this week, mostly trial and error until I solved the issue.

 The Agile and Plan and Document (Waterfall) processes are very different.  In the Agile process, iterations or sprints are used to complete smaller tasks rapidly whereas the Waterfall process follows a predetermined timeline for deliveries.  The Waterfall process is usually used for very large projects and takes much longer due to each delivery being reliant on the previous one.  Also Waterfall process uses a large chunk of time to rigorously plan everything at the beginning of the process whereas Agile allows for changes throughout the process because of the smaller deliveries each sprint.  This allows for quick and simple testing of each delivery versus the Waterfall process that usually begins to test near the end of the final deliveries because again each delivery relies on resources from the previous.

  How does React compare to other frameworks you have used for front end development?  I have not had much experience with front end development frameworks.  I have had little experience with JavaScript and HTML.  One thing I noticed about React that is helpful is the ability to have HTML embedded directly into JavaScript rather than have numerous HTML files and JavaScript files.  This is useful in maintaining readable code and code that is easily navigated.
