Reflection

This was the final group project built during the last week in the Bootcamp. From my past experience, I always thought that walking or running could be a lot more interesting when you have your paw mate. I noticed that the free neighbour dog walking service was quite thin in New Zealand. The team gather up to fill this gap to bring joy to the walkers, dog owners and the dogs themselves.

Hence, as a product owner, I wanted to build a free platform that links two parties:

• Walkers/runners who do not have a dog but would love to neighbour's dog for a walk
• Dog owners who need a free dog walk service in their neighbour

I suggested trying out a recent state management tool (Redux Toolkit) and thankfully the team agreed with the idea. The team had a previous experience with Redux so implementing Redux Toolkit was foreign but was something that the team quickly adapted to. One of the main challenges we also ran into was the implementation of Auth0 for the application. Implementation of Auth0 provides the main feature of the application that each user can create, update and delete their information on the database whilst reading other users' information.

Apart from the technical obstacles, the team worked collaboratively. We actively shared our ideas on the project. We had a minimum of two stand-ups every day where each member shared on what they have worked on in between and the issues they were facing. Each of us tried our best to complete the assigned tickets while helping other team members who were stuck on the problems. Thank you for your hard work team!
