Project: alpha release
The goal for this assignment is to get your application very close to feature-complete and polished enough that users can try it out.
What to do
- Get your application working and looking good.
- Do what you can via in-app documentation or UI conventions or whatever to make your app's features discoverable. Discoverability means something different for a game or a web app or a command-line app, of course. Do what's natural, conventional, and appropriate to your application.
- If there are missing or broken features, make sure they don't disrupt the functioning of the rest of the application.
In a
README.mdat the top of your repository, include:- Title of your project
- Short description of your project (you may copy this from other docs I've asked for before)
- Brief getting-started section for developers (a clean
and short-as-possible version of the "install and run
this" instructions from
doc/development.mdanddoc/running.md) - Short list of existing features
- Short todo list: what are you going to do to finalize the project?
- Anything else you want to add to the readme file
- Tag your repo
alpha. - Push everything (including the tag).
- Be ready with one partner's laptop (or two, if that's necessary—looking at you, P2P team) to enable classmates to try out your app in class.
