Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
For each person in your pair, describe something you learned from your partner during this project	Angela: Deeper level of puzzling and practicing talking out loud through the thought process. Bianca: Before starting the project, checking in about expectations and needs for the pair project to be successful. I was also impressed by the desire to take on a challenge, such as CSS/styling, that was outside of Angela's comfort zone.
What was one area of Backbone you gained more clarity on during this assignment?	We learned how important listeners are in the initialize of a model view. We tried to cause a view change in an event method without realizing there was no listener set to rerender the view.
Describe how you solved the problem of having lists of movies that look mostly the same but have different content	We kept the movie view and the Backbone template, but when we added a movie to the library, we added an if/else statement in the template to handle the different situation of local rental library versus large API call to external API.
Describe how you handled rentals with Backbone?	We did not attempt this optional.
Describe a DOM event your application handled	We called a render on moviesLibraryView when the view library button is clicked.
Describe a custom event your application handled	Our add event. It is linked to the add button. It saves the model to the rails API.
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?	I appreciate that basic functionality was the baseline with more challenging optionals available. It was just the right amount of challenge given depleted mental reserves :)
