Implementation Timeline

Phase 1: User Authentication (~1 day)

In Phase 1, I'm planning on setting up authentication for the User to create an account and sign in. In addition, I'm going to create Schema, Models and Controllers to create notebooks and notes in RAILS. Before starting Phase 2, I will also push the app to Heroku.

• Phase1

Phase 2: Backbone Views (~2 days)

In this Phase, I will add Backbone Models and Collections to fetch data from my routes. I will also create existing Rails Views in Backbone.

• Phase2

Phase 3: Editing and Displaying Notebooks (~1 days )

In this Phase, I will set up a Notebooks CompositeView in Backbone and style the page with HTML & CSS. In addition, I will add a nav bar & set up divs on the Index Page.

• Phase3

Phase 4: Editing and Displaying Notes (~2 days)

In this Phase, I will add the ability to enter content for a note in the Notes Form & save the note when the user clicks outside the form. I will work on organizing HTML & CSS for this form.

Phase 5: Tagging Notes (~1 day)

In this Phase, I will add the ability to add tags and select tags so they filter notes that are displayed.
