GitHub Projects Issues

MVP

• The user can choose which song they want to play

• The app will render songs from Spotify with a time signature that fits the dance

• The user can hit start when they are ready to dance, and will see a countdown

• The user's finger taps will be registered and recorded by the app

• The app will only register taps on the beats, in the right spot

• The app will record number of correct taps and compare it with the number of expected taps for a song.

• The app can play a single song (we're choosing Beyond the Sea)

• The app can render animated footsteps that sync with the beats of the song

Day 1 Agenda:

• DTR
• Initialize Repos
• Set up scrum board
• Normalize workflow with PR Template
• Determine MVP
• Create Wireframe
• Contruct schema design
