#8: Final Thoughts

This journey is long over. Better friendships were made, and I learnt the importance of working together as a team; how important communication is to prevent misunderstandings from occur.

I am proud of us as a team-- how we managed to pull through despite all the tough times and heavy deadlines!!!!!!!!!!! I thought that we communicated well and always stayed up to track with whatever each of us is doing, which I really really appreciate since it keeps me on track with my work progress.

the only picture of us + Esther!

This project has made me realised the importance of feature planning too. Without getting an overview and writing all the user stories, I doubt that our team will be able to stay on track and such. The sprint planning, sprint review sessions and daily stand up meetings all contributed to keeping me on track and facilitated communication with me and my teammates. We could find out a list of what was done and what was left to do easily.

On the technical side, I vividly remember myself trying to learn Java during the Hackathon period, wanting to help code out the UI part while the other developers tried to get the back-end working. I tried, but then decided I'll be better off creating other content and making the project bigger-scale by creating a web application instead. Also since I had faith that they'll be able to complete the application anyways. So why not put my skills to better use instead HAHA. 🤟🏻

Also, was quite proud of how our project had some pull-requests from the public. :") We realised that they found out project because they searched up for calorie-trackers, which is pretty c00l. We're open source, yES,,,

All in all, thank you for all the memories. Was great working with you guys haha x)
