We determined components and associated data components.
We scheduled our second sprint successfully.
finished all class projects for summer class
We got our webpack build to work!! I’m very new to Webpack.
Getting nifty with using local storage, json files, and Firebase
We learned how to use Redux in our app.
We scheduled a meeting
I did it for the first time pull request and requested code review.
ironed out the basic project requirements.
Successfully helped my team mate get webpack running with the app base I set up, yay!
We are meeting and taking care of biz and knocking out todos.
I tackled a difficult situation and took action to remedy the situation. Which in relationship type situations I do not always do. So I am proud I acted and am learning and growing as an individual.
