Implementation

  1. System design and architecture



  2. Technologies
    • Backend: Python, Django framework, Django REST framework, and Sqlite for database
    • Frontend: PhoneGap, HTML & CSS with Bootstrap and Foundation frameworks, JavaScript with jQuery library
    • Frontend (client) sends request to server via REST APIs to retrieve data. The server returns JSON data response to the client.


  3. Working environment

    • Development: Each team member wrote the code on own machines or own Cloud9 workspace, and tested the code on his own.
    • Version control: We used GIT for version control of the project. All source code was stored on Bitbucket because Bitbucket provided private GIT repository. Later, the code was published on a public GitHub repository.
    • Production: Once development was completed and tested, the source code was pulled from Bitbucket repository to the Cloud9 workspace, in which the application was deployed and ran as production environment.


  4. Team communication
    • Slack: chatting and file sharing platform
    • Direct conversation once in the Lab classroom

Source Code

We used Git as source code versioning control and Bitbucket as the private repository centre.
After the code camp, the source code was pushed to GitHub.
