- Java JDK 8
- Node/NPM
To start the application simply execute and run.sh open a web browser at http://localhost:8080.
This runs npm install, npm run build and then assembles both the react app and the backend application into a single fat jar before running it.
For rapid deployments during development, the backend can be run via PlanningPokerApplication on http://localhost:8080 with a development spring profile to get around same-origin policy (CORS), followed by frontend/npm start to serve the frontend on http://localhost:3000
MVP focus to keep a reasonable scope meaning:
- Only a few simple tests
- Simple GUI, no side/top/footer, limited responsiveness, console error logging only
- No persistence, in memory only
- No life cycle of poker sessions, should be implemented if proper persistence is implemented.
- No login, users are trusted to provide their name and only their name.
- Might use features not compatible with older browsers (skipping SockJS, some css might not be compatible with every browser etc.)
- Frontend and backend are bundled in a single deployment for convenience and avoid CORS issues, which of course disallows redeploying only the front or backend.
- One hard coded localhost domain to get web sockets working (would have preferred a relative one).
- Vote range hard coded, would be nice with a few selectable sets of rules (fibonacchi, t-shirt sizes, etc).
