Why Taco 'Bout It!?

Taco 'Bout It! was created by aspiring software engineers to create both a way of finding great taco spots in the Portland Area, and as a way to coordinate meeting other members of our cohort.

Making a plan

1. Make a drawing of your app. Simple "wireframes"

2. Once you have a drawing, name the HTML elements you'll need to realize your vision

3. For each HTML element ask: Why do I need this?

4. Once we know why we need each element, think about how to implement the "Why" as a "How"

5. Find all the 'events' (user clicks, form submit, on load etc) in your app. Ask one by one, "What happens when" for each of these events. Does any state change?

6. Think about how to validate each of your features according to a Definition of Done

7. Consider what features depend on what other features. Use this dependency logic to figure out what order to complete tasks.

Additional considerations:

• Ask: which of your HTML elements need to be hard coded, and which need to be dynamically generated?
• Consider your data model.
  • What kinds of objects (i.e., Dogs, Friends, Todos, etc) will you need?
  • What are the key/value pairs?
  • What arrays might you need?
  • What needs to live in a persistence layer?
• Is there some state we need to initialize?
• Ask: should any of this work be abstracted into functions? (i.e., is the work complicated? can it be resused?)
