Teaming up

[fourstacks]

Hi @CodeHubOrg/codehub-mentorships

I've been thinking about how we can divide up work on this project and I've come up with the following plan of action after chatting about it with a few people at the meetups.

The plan would be to break up the work into discrete features and then assign these to small, two-person teams. Each team would ideally be made up of one person with a reasonable amount of experience in the main area of work required (e.g. Laravel/PHP or React/JS) and another person with less experience, looking to learn the ropes a bit more. The idea here is to create little informal mentorships as we go.

In order to organise something along these lines we'll need an idea of the skills and experience of everyone on the project who wants to get involved in the development side of things. With this information I'll try and create a few teams and @stiffneckjim can hopefully start wrangling some of the feature ideas I've been putting together and dividing them up.

Could you let me know in a comment below the following:

• Your main area/s of development experience.

• Whether you would feel confident in being a 'guiding' team member or if you'd prefer to be teamed up with someone with more experience.

• The type of development work that you'd like to take on (for example you might be looking to learn something quite different from your current skillset).

Thank you @fourstacks :D

• My main area is React and Laravel.

• I prefer to be teamed up with someone who's more experienced.

• I'd like to focus on React side of the project. (I don't mind doing laravel but I want to learn more about React)

Hello John,

Roopa here and thank you very much sharing more details.

• I have basic knowledge of React and Sql.

• I would like to teamed up with someone with more experience.

• I would like to take on React side of the project and if possible sql aswell.

Thanks @fourstacks !

• I have experience of Laravel for a year, written some PHP before that. Have known React for a long time, but only used it in earnest for a year as well.
• I think I could be teamed up with either, my main caveat is to find the time and energy; so maybe just a small piece of work to start with to see how it works out. I'd love to work on this project.
• I would like to try out writing something in TypeScript, and for that be teamed up with somebody more experience, but that can come later. Probably best to start with React for now

Hello!

• Most of my experience relevant to this tech stack is react and typescript. I also do quite a bit of backend development but not normally in php.
• I'm happy with either pairing with someone who's new to react or pairing with someone who has some more experience.
• I don't mind what I pick up really! I'm quite interested in working on authentication, if that's an option. I don't know if you've already got ideas about how you want to do that. I don't have loads of spare time so I should probably make sure not to bite off more than I can chew! But I'm happy to get stuck in with whatever.

Hello Thank you for organising Jon. React/frontend for me please, probably with someone more experienced depending on the tasks. I would be interested in seeing how the Laravel works but not sure I would be much use. See you tomorrow

I'd be delighted to help out where ever, but my technical help will likely be limited. I was thinking more admin and possibly ops and testing. I've a little experience in cloud admin, know enough about containers, databases, VMs and Linux to be dangerous.
