WebFund 2013W Final Project

Note the following is a draft.

For your final project, you will be submitting your code in github along with documentation. The documentation will, in total, be your "report." Your documentation should have the following files, all text files in markdown format unless otherwise noted. Note the total project is worth 20 points, as divided up below:

• README.md (3): This is the top-level readme file which should have your project's name, the names of the members of the team and their student numbers, and a one paragraph summary of the project that gives a high-level view of what the program is supposed to do and how it works, including main package dependencies.
• docs/Dependencies.md (1): List all of the external node and other software packages your application depends upon. For each, explain why it was needed briefly. You do not need to list sub-dependencies (e.g., if you depend upon express, you don't have to list all the packages that express depends upon unless you used any of them explicitly).
• docs/Files.md (1): List all of the files in your repository that you created or modified explicitly (rather than ones included by required packages) and explain the purpose of each/what is in each file.
• docs/Archictecture (1): give a high-level architecture diagram of your application. This file may be in text or PDF.
• docs/Motivation.md (3): This file should explain how you came up with your project idea and should explain your project goals.
• docs/Extensions.md (3): List and discuss potential ways your application could be extended. Be specific as to how these extentions could be done and explain how your existing design does or does not support these extensions. This is the place where you bridge the gap between what you built and what you'd ideally like to have created.

The above is worth 12 points. The remaining 8 points are for code style and quality (4) and overall functionality (4).

If your application does not have a backend store, server-side code, and client-side code, where all three are functional and have a distinct function in your application, you'll lose 5 marks automatically. If your project server isn't implemented in in node.js, you lose 10 points.

For everything worth more than one point, reasonable but not notable projects will get one less than the maximum. Thus, if you made a modest effort you'll probably get 15/20, or 75% (a solid B). You get the last point if that part was done well. Thus, I expect to give out many Bs, some A-'s, fewer A's, and very few A+'s.
