The Project

We were tasked to build a “smart” shopping list over the course of 10 weeks. During this time there was lots of pair programming, async communication over slack, code review, demos, and retrospectives.

Features

• Login and customized views based off of whom logged in
• Create a new list
• Add an item to the list and set the urgency level (soon, kind of soon, not so soon)
• Delete an item from the list
• Mark an item as purchased
• Search a list for an item
• Share a list with another user

Closing

We had a great 10 weeks learning from each other and are looking forward to continuing to build fun projects.

If you’re looking to hire early career developers, I would highly encourage you to take a look at these folks’ LinkedIn profiles.
