Project Details

This project was a part of a web apps course at Westminster College. I served in a tea of 6 people, 4 developers and 2 designers. Our team met with the director of the Utah Pride Center to problem solve a solution for getting zoom links to young adults. Our client was manually sending out individual zoom links to each person for each weekly meeting. This app was designed to automate the process.

Our user audience for this project is young adults, some very young. Our team decided to use token links to make it more accessible for kids and remove a user password login.

My personal role on the team was front-end development. I helped to design the wireframes of the project in collaboration with the other 2 designers and coded out the front end portion according to their designs. I then handed off my code to the secondary front-end developer who adapted my HTML/CSS/JS to be in unison with Django’s host.

Personal Reflection

This project taught me how to go about conflict resolution on a team with large conflicting personalities. Our team was stalled on development making the decision to switch from a user login and password to a token based system. The token based system was unfamiliar to most of our developers and heavily relied on the success of one team members work. I believe this product would be successful with either system and out of support for a team members ideas, went with the token system. By using the token system, the director only needs to set up one link per person per class. The director would only need to create a new link if the person lost theirs. I feel this was a good way to go about it.
