How was the result?

Positive feedback from CI102-103 classmates

We received a lot of love and constructive feedbacks from our peers

Firsthand experience with NodeJS/ExpressJS

This was my first time trying ExpressJS in specific, and NodeJS in general. The coding experience was one of the best!

Exposure to AWS

We tried out Lambda, API Gateway, and S3. It was really convenient, however, the UI was a bit disappointing

Sharpen our collaborating skill

We were introduced to the Agile Methodology and the sprint concept.
