ZTeamMilestone1

Back to main ZTeam page

We are planning to make a web app, using AngularJS and Google Maps on the client side, and communicate to the server, using the HTTP/REST towards the API.

We were considering using LeafletJS for the map stuff, but decided to start out with Google Maps, since we know it better.

We are planning to write the app basically from scratch (using the base app from the lecture as starting point).

To ensure a responsive app for low bandwidth clients, we are going to optimize the caching, and only fetch necessary fields from the API using the AJAX concept.

The web app will be accessed thru both desktop and mobile devices, so we will ensure that it is responsive for both platforms, using CSS and AngularJS functionality.

Methodology

We will be using an agile methodology to develop this project. First focusing on basic functionality, then incrementing on that, adding more advanced functionality.

The decision for this is based on the facts that the project is dynamic, the group is small, and the time restraints are very real.
