• US2: As a Mammoth user, I want to log in so that I can access/view my data.
• US3: As a user, I want to enter my run/routes information.
• US4: As a user, I want to see my previous workout information so that I can assess my progress.
• US5: As a user, I want to create a custom/use a template workout plan
• US6: As a user, I want to browse for workout plan ideas

Pages of the application:

• Log in

Curtis: Layout, run/routes templates, routing, Google API

Milestones:

• Jan. 31 (Thursday): Outline project
• Feb. 2 (Saturday): create models
• Feb. 5 (Tuesday): templates for each page
• Feb. 7 (Thursday): login/user authentication figured out
• Feb. 9 (Saturday): working app - Sprint 1 is complete
• Feb. 12 (Tuesday): polish runs/routes functionality
• Feb. 14 (Thursday): Polished and working app, readme
• Feb. 15 (Friday): Prepare for presentation
• Feb. 16 (Saturday): Presentation

To-dos:

• Display a bar graph of last five runs by date for logged in user **
• Add functionality to load friends runs by adding friends email address. Display user's and his friends runs in one graph on the dashboard
• Add a test for one GET and POST route
• prepare for presentation
• update readme

To-do in polishing stage:

• Post Activity Form Validation: minutes <= 59, seconds <= 59
• ** Post Activity, Mile Pace calculates as "NaNNaN" before user completes entry
• Add "select one" to the Primary surface drop down
• Bootstrap Load Route button
• Replace "top runs/routes" with "recent runs/routes"
• Save route button saves empty route if nothing is selected
• Undo last button throws error if nothing to undo
• Add end icon for last point in route
• After loading a route from the drop-down list it doesn't loads up a route on the map. It used to load the route when the load route button was on the map.
• After saving a run, user has to manually refresh the page to update route drop down list in the run form. Fix this to auto refresh drop-down list each time user saves a route.
• Fix big with Loop Route: sometimes takes alternate route when looping back to start. Clicking Undo Last should erase End Icon if no points are remaining.
• Replace alerts in public/login.js and public/index.js with bootstrap modal or similar thing

Issues/ Learnings:

• same id's in handlebar files like post-activity.js where distance id's for maps and run form were same
• If user Loops Route then clicks "Undo Last", user has to undo each leg that was looped. Ideally it would undo the entire Loop Route function
• API object didn't work for me in the post-activity.js. It'd throw API.xxx isn't function. I write that ajax call within my function where I called it.
• After joining second routes table with user I would see error Routes.UserID can't be null. I had to switch to less strick SQL mode which fixed this issue. I added this line of code to our schema file: SET GLOBAL sql_mode='';
• $ajax call didn't work in one of the files. It appeared that we were using slim version of jQuery which doesn't support ajax calling. I replaced it with this version:
  <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
