What's the name of your app?

Household Gizmo

Fitgrapher (just developed this for fun on Sunday, but also demonstrates competency in Rails)

What does it do?

Household Gizmo is a house communication and expense calculation app.

Fitgrapher is an app which consumes Fitbit data and generates a graph of steps walked.

Who was on your team?

Strand McCutchen

Which covered topics did you leverage?

• JavaScript
• Forms
• Deployment
• APIs

Which feature(s) are you most proud of?

Honestly, I don't think either of these projects demo my best work, but I was glad to have an opportunity to play with stuff I wouldn't try out on client work.

How did you ensure your code is correct?

I have RSpec installed in Household Gizmo, but ended up not writing many tests.

Both apps mainly got manual testing.

What challenges, technical and/or non-technical, did you overcome?

I had some depression in the middle of the quarter, and that made it harder for me to focus on apps outside of work.

What would you have liked to add given more time?

I didn't end up writing a complete feature to calculate how much house members paid for their portion of expenses based on their wage.

What would you do differently?

I would not have not used decent_exposure. The tradeoff of getting drier, but less explicit code wasn't worth it.

How does the final version of your app compare to your initial vision?

It sucks, but I'm planning on working on it further with @zph.
