- What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours).
- This week I successfully implemented my workaround for the SocketIO bug. My new solution was to just use the return status of the POST request from the frontend to trigger the page transition. This logic is cleaner, more simple, and less prone to failure.
- I also helped to re-fabricate the blocks for testing after Alexis cut holes for the on/off switch.
- Additionally, I have been testing the entire game flow E2E with the hardware and software (demo), and noting down bugs/errors that I find, so that we can continue with fine-tuning our integration of the hardware and software components.
- I also fixed an edge case with the dictionary where if a word doesn’t appear in the dictionary, it causes a network error during puzzle uploading to the blocks.
- Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
- My progress is on schedule since we are pretty much done with our MVP (minus the grid construction). Now I just have to finish up the testing to see if we meet our design and user requirement specs.
- What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
- Next week, I hope to start fabricating the next 8 blocks that we will need for our reach goal of 16 blocks. I’ll be soldering all the necessary parts together to make the internal circuit for the blocks. I will also try to finish up my testing on our MVP, and hopefully be able to help with grid design as well.
