Incremental Deliverable 1 Lessons Learned - SeoulSKY/safe-zone-system GitHub Wiki
Lessons Learned
GitHub Wiki is not a good place to store the activity log. When multiple people are editing the same page, only the person that submits is first changes are saved. Everyone else has to refresh the page(which removes their changes) and resubmit their changes.
Start development earlier. It was kind of unavoidable due to a large amount of our developers being new to the technologies we are using, but for future deliverables we definitely want to get started a lot earlier with actually writing code.
Have shorter meetings and formal reviews. Large formal reviews take awhile to do and scheduling follow ups is nearly hard with our schedules. Keeping meetings and reviews shorter and reviewing smaller amounts should make this easier to find time to schedule follow ups.
The heavy investment in tutorials was definitely worth it. There were a large amount of stumbling blocks in all the new technologies that people had to learn in a short amount of time to actually produce any system. These tutorials helped ensure that stuff could actually progress.
