The application will be written in Python and JavaScript, using Django and Vue.js frameworks, and runnable on Windows, Linux, or MacOS hosts containing the required software.

Development Process

The development will use an iterative and incremental process. Each iteration has a length of one week starting on Monday and ending on Sunday.

Workflow

• At the start of each iteration, the Vision, Project Plan, and Requirements are reviewed and updated.
• A goal for the iteration and at least 1 milestone are defined and written in the Iteration Plan.
• Major work for the iteration is defined and recorded in the Iteration Plan.
• The application design is reviewed and revised (if needed) for new features to be added.
• The Iteration Plan, including the goal, milestone(s), and major work, is added to the wiki.
• Tasks are defined and written in the Project Backlog on Github.
• A Github Task Board for this iteration is created to track work in this iteration.
• Github Flow is used to manage code.
• Defects and other issues are recorded in a Github Issue Tracker.
• Weekly meeting every Monday and Wednesday afternoon via Discord group chat or actual meetup.

Technology and Tools

• The application is written in Python using the Django web framework.
• The application uses Vue.js as a front-end framework.
• The application uses MySQL as the database.
• Github Wiki for project documents (Information hub).
• Github Project for backlog, task planning, and iteration task boards.
