Challenges
I didn't have any prior experience working in a group on a software engineering project. So this was a really major challange for me we did the same parts with my partners a couple of times. Than we overcame this problem by exact seperation of tasks among us. Also I had to learn all the things from scratch which can be quite challenging pshychologically also, since you can never now when you will be able to code it properly and there is a strict deadline set in front of you.

Challenges
Since I only had a one-year computer engineering education, doing a software engeriing project in a group was a challenge for me in every aspect. I had difficulty both keeping up with the team and doing useful work due to my insufficient knowledge.

Challenges
Technical Challenges: I only had some experience with Next.js before starting this project. So implementing and using react-router and deciding on a file structure was a challenge for me since Next.js has its own router and kind of opinionated file structure. I solved this by looking at example applications on GitHub and searching about best practices for each decision. Another challenge was to set up authentication related functionalities in the frontend as I had only used third party solutions before. However, I had already researched about common authentication practices for sequence diagrams. Therefore, I was able to easily set up the authentication hook and its usage by looking at some examples. I also encountered some unexpected errors and solved them along the way such as CORS errors when making requests to django, Docker compose related errors and address related errors on Digitalocean. Detailed information about these errors and their corresponding fixes can be found in my work done table with their related Issues and PRs. Other Challenges: We could started working on Milestone 2 a little late and therefore were in a rush most of the time. We are planning to start early for the final milestone. We were used to having meetings together with all members, but quickly realized that molecular meetings about important tasks with members responsible for the tasks was way easier to organize and way more efficient. We also had a little mismatch in the order of functionalities we implemented with backend team. We will be making more detailed plans together and increase communication between teams from now on.

Challenges
I had no idea when I first started to the backend part. I also had very little knowledge about how to develop a software in a group from the lectures. For this reason, I had to learn everything from scratch. I have wathed tutorials on different topics about our project however all those tutorials were applying various methods so I had a confusion when we switch to our project. I couldn't now which one to apply by myself most of the times. Having less experience was by far the most important challange for me but I am planning to overcome this by time. Another minor issue was coordinating with my peers but by having regular meetings we will overcome that issue also.

Task Details Issue Link Wiki Link Took part in creating class diagrams #74,#69 Wiki Researched and practiced SPARQL and WikiData API to create queries, and wrote the WD queries. #93 - Implemented searching functionality by writing a 'search' endpoint, making WikiData API calls and pulled out the image of the item from WikiMedia. #94 - Improved the time of the search functionality by nearly 300% by converting the query calls to WikiData asynchronously. #105 - Reviewed the Backend code from top to bottom. #117 - Studied Postman and used it to test the functionality of endpoints. #129 - Refactored the code to make synchronous WikiData API calls after we faced a problem related to DigitalOcean in deployment. #148 - Wrote the Backend subsections under the Challenges Encountered header and the Git Workflow subsection under the Lessons Learned header. #144 -
Challenges
I had difficulty adapting to the Python language when using Django after using strongly-typed languages for my own endeavors for a very long time. I also had little to no knowledge about backend development. I reviewed my Python knowledge and watched a couple of crash courses for the Django framework. And after looking at some example Django code, I gained the necessary knowledge to proceed.

Issue Meeting Backend #* & Meeting Deployment
Challenges
It was very hard to dockerizing the project . Yunus Emre wroted the docker files and the docker_compose.yml file but they didn't worked . I learned docker from the start and its concepts . It was challening to learn how to write them and which rules they have. Then , I tried to fix the error for a long time . Because I was unexperieneced I didn't realized the error was because of CORS. Apart from that I had challenges when I tried to study SPARQL language . In start I tried to learn it from scratch. But then we realized they had a system that is generating the SPARQL queries for specific demands which made our job easy. Another challenge was to make compatible with my code and my friend's code . Creating PRs and choosing the right version of the code was another challenge.

Challenges
I did not run into many challenges. Completing the whole mobile app on my own was challenging. Setting up the mobile application is usually the most challenging part of developing a mobile app.

Challenges
Trying to understand and code with a language that you don't have any experience was hard, it took lots of works and I studied really much. It took the most of my time. Also, dockerization and using a cloud database were new challenges to me, because I mostly worked on developing product side in my internships and I was just coding on my local. It was hard to setup a project because I encountered lots of errors caused by my lack of experience in software engineering
