- Notes on broadly scoping projects:
- Make a list of all assumptions. There will be a lot of them.
- Compare how long it took to develop a similar component, and estimate the difference saying that it’s only 80% as complicated, or 150% as complicated.
- Attended a brain storming session for a mobile app! Really exciting and I hope we get to develop something.
Idea for something I really should do (inspired by): Collect common SVN, JS Lint, JS compression, and JS doc tasks into a set of build processes and try to standardize them in the group. Should I use Rake or Ant? Need to research Ant. Could probably make a really nice DSL/config file for Rake though, and could distribute the scripts to configure a project with a gem.
It would be nice to have a simple command like
commit -m "message"that runs lint, compresses the JS and CSS, and generates docs before making an SVN commit. The platform lead could even disallow commits with lint validation errors.An extra helper for cutting tags would be really nice too.
