Collaborating on a web application

Today we’ll begin our first real team project, with a shared repo. This will require more planning, a lot of communication and coordination, and adding on some new git skills that will let us collaborate.

🎯 Project: Django Duplex

You will work in a shared repo for the first time and turn in one application that your team will build together. How you share the work is up to you to determine.

You have two options to choose from for this assignment. Your team should meet to discuss and decide today which one you will do. Then, the very first thing you should do is decide what models you will need and what attributes and relationships they should have.

This assignment is due next Thursday at the end of the Phase.
