Meeting Recap

Today's meeting

• Finalized tech stack (MERN)
• Standups on Mon/Wed/Fri (Mon and Fri are async, Wed live)

Team Action Items

• Continue with figma designs (mobile first)
• Continue to think of components for your web apps (This will help with our backlog for next week when we start making it and start assigning tasks)
• Continue to practice more with React (and possibly even with Express/Node if you're already comfortable with it)

Mentor Action Items

• Set up repository with base default React (with linting and formatting)
• Provide more resources on React:

Take a look at the following:

• https://reactjs.org/docs/react-component.html#the-component-lifecycle (This is good for the component life cycle but we'll use useEffect and useState hooks instead) (Refer to the link below)
• https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-effect.html
• https://reactjs.org/docs/introducing-jsx.html

Core concepts of React:

Make sure to get a good idea of:

• https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_es6.asp

These links are to get more info about how package.json works and what npm/yarn were in case if some of my explanations didn't make sense (feel free to give these a quick glance)
