Week 9 Update(April 5th-12th)

Hello Everybody! Happy Easter and more importantly, happy middle of sprint one! The first app demo is only 9 days away, and the team is busy getting the Augustana Market up and running. Our large goals for spring one revolve around ensuring the app has core functionality in place, like a login page that authenticates users, a screen that lists all items up for sale with detailed information, and a way for sellers to add items they are looking to sell to the marketplace. So far, we have had an up-and-down time implementing these things. As stated in the last post, the login page is complete! However, we still have all the other requirements. The main item listing page is in progress and close to being complete. Fortunately, once the item listing page is complete, the item detail screen should come along very smoothly. On the flip-side, one of our team members has extensive experience adding data to Firebase, so we anticipate good progress on the item addition page in the coming week. 

Some quick(or maybe not-so-quick) wins of the week

·       Added persistence to redux, so now states maintain after page refreshes
·       Implemented Firebase UI, so the login looks more professional
·      Implemented a sign out feature, so users aren't trapped in app for eternity

That is all we have for this blog post, but stay tuned for the next QC Quail post!
