Project Work
Build comfort with picking up tickets, doing the work, and merging your code in with your teammates’
Activities
As a Team
- Continue using the standup format to check in at your team meetings:
- What have I been working on so far this week?
- What will I be working on (or continuing) next?
- What issues are blocking me?
- Use your remaining meeting time to work on resolving merge conflicts with your teammates.
- Review files together to determine what the code is doing, what should be kept, and what order it needs to be in.
- Make plans to pair program or restructure who is working on what (and when) if conflicts are anticipated to be unmanageable.
- Draw on your Project Lead’s expertise to help you resolve these things, and get comfortable with how to communicate with a teammate during this process.
On Your Own
- Continue working on your tickets, taking care to work in small chunks, commit your code often, and be mindful of the work your teammates are doing so you know which files might overlap.
- Once you have completed a ticket and your code is working well, make a Pull Request so that it can be reviewed and merged into the project’s codebase (review the GitHub Guides article above for a refresher if needed).
Resources
- Review any of the previous weeks’ resources that you need a refresher on, or do some more research on areas where you want to learn more.
- Use this time to catch up on anything you are feeling behind on, and get really comfortable with the workflow of your team.
