Milestone 1

1. Team Members:

  • @rudyt
  • @jsloopy
  • @simomsays
  • @imannie
  • @grace5l5

2. Software goals and concept:

  • Goal: This app helps a group of friends choose a restaurant.

  • User story:

A group of friends is hungry. But what to eat? One family includes a teenage vegitarian. Another wants Chinese food or pasta. No one wants to go to the same old place yet again. What to do? Using Dinder, the group swpies left or right to narrow the list of possibilities. Once four resturants were given the swipe-right "thumbs up," the list of possibilities is displayed. The user can choose, or if still undecided, a "Choose For Me" button picks one of the four and off the group goes to eat.

3. Project specifications:

  • APIs - Yelp : The user makes a couple of filter selections, such as city and price, etc.. The app then uses those filters to retrieve data from the Yelp API and presents these one at a time in a tinder-like fashion. Swipe left to discard a suggestion, swipe right to add to your list of possibilities. Once 4 possible resturants are in their list, they can pick themselves and the app can choose for them.
