Should do in large blocks. e.g., spend one saturday. # The Project Should: - follow a design pattern - e.g., for web apps: mvc: model view controller [MVC](notes/model-view-controller-pattern.md) - clean professional UI - mobile and desktop - people are "visual buyers" - use a bootstrap template - database - must perform all of CRUD operations - security - authorisation --> giving people permissions once they are logged in - authentication --> logging in - use a third party service like auth zero - solve a business problem - i.e., not a toy app (tic tac toe, etc) ## Bug/Issue Tracker - e.g., JIRA, etc - This can be easily adjusted to fit different industries. # Building the Project ## 1 SRS - compile the requirements - divide these into sprints. - these are the blocks discussed earlier - blocks rabbit holes ## 2 Track your progress - keeps details - use the bug tracker you are building - show this to the interviewer # Common Mistakes - Build using .NET, ASP.net mvc, C#.
