What will we be doing?
We will be a team of 6 members at most, and we will build a web application for 6 weeks while following Agile/Scrum principles. Only part-time commitment is required (10-20 hours/week), as most of us are busy.
The programming languages/libraries used will most likely be:
- JavaScript
- React
- MERN stack
Of course, we can use other languages/libraries if the team chooses to do so.
What are the goals of the workshop?
Primary goals:
- allow the participants to gain more team experience
- exchange knowledge with each other
- filling in any learning gaps and correcting bad practices
- provide a networking opportunity to connect with other developers and designers
- build lasting relationships even after the workshop ends
Secondary Goals:
- successfully build a team project for our portfolio (yeah this is less important than the ones above)
- help each other with interviews/job search (we can do interview practice and resume reviews with each other, but after the workshop)
General Requirements:
- 10-20 hours/week availability
- Communication skills
- Self-driven learner
- Willingness to work as a team and use collaboration tools
- Humility and receptiveness to feedback
- the closer you are to GMT +8, the better (but any time zone is okay)
Developer Requirements:
- Capable of building a solo project (Tier 2 in Chingu - check comments)
- React proficiency (MERN is nice to have, but not required)
- CSS/SCSS and HTML proficiency
Designer Requirements:
- Wireframing tools (Figma or anything similar)
- Knowledge of web design principles
