Technical MVP

  • This week the development team has been working through to complete Sprint 2 which concludes on Monday the 20th. While the focus last week was on the login flow, this week the team has been dedicating their time to completing the initial profile setup screen and form as well as creating the project summary screen for a user to view the seed projects. The team will conclude this sprint’s work by finishing up the integration with the Mooti ID elements and finalize integration with Moeda server endpoints.
    We worked with the Brazil local team to begin clarifying payment authorization at the user level, and the oversight needs of the cooperative.
    Planned Sprint 3 will focus on two areas:
  • User KYC / AML validation and wallet activation process.
  • Seed Project detail listing, updating, and administration.
