This lesson is more of a work based lesson in which Todd (the 'client') will wander around and check on each group's progress to assist them with further progress/direction.
Our group has done a lot of work on the milestone one IA document last night, we knocked out a lot of sections until we felt we had cobbled together a sufficient draft version. We worked together through the User requirements, Site Goals, Site Content, Site structure etc making sure we had ironed out our base ideas and direction in which the site will strive towards in the future.
Individually I have looked into meteor and Laravel for booking type plugins, meteor appeared a bit lacklustre in terms of selection, with most plugins having little or no downloads. Laraval, however, did appear to have some more potential, other students have looked into WordPress which would be an easy way out due to the plethora of plugins WordPress sports on its platform. I would prefer to not go down the WordPress path as I have done WordPress in a previous level 5 course.
Todd provided us with a light-review of an example table of contents for Milestone One, this provided people not aware of the IA process with some insight into the rationale and inner workings of the document sections provided.
As a team, we are continuing today by looking into the capabilities of both laravel and meteor to see which more closely aligns with what our site needs to achieve.
