The Problem

Our users want a better way to ask help refactoring their code and help others refactor their code so that we can make the world a better place.

WHAT IS IT?

Refactors is a community of like-minded coders seeking to improve their code together. Post code to be refactored or browse code to refactor and help each other.

Our Approach

  1. Narrowed our target audience
  2. Discuss Initial User-flow
  3. Defined user flow
  4. Moodboard
  5. Style Tile
  6. Wireframe
  7. Design
  8. Test
  9. Integrate design with Ruby kids

Working With Them Ruby Kids

  1. Assess as a team during scrums what we needed to accomplish 2x/day (morning/noon)
  2. Work on discussed view
  3. Push
  4. Ruby devs see what they broke / what broke their tests
  5. We help inspect and fix

Challenges

Or sorry daddy Dale, we dun bad...

  • Finding a better integrated work rhythm
  • Set naming conventions with the ruby team
  • Rails will re-class and double class, so watch out
  • That darn footer...
  • Make sure to set appropriate time to refactor and clean things up
