Your grade in the course will be determined by a sum of points you individually earn.
You can accumulate points by doing the homework and building a great project. The majority of the points are earned through doing the project. If you work individually, point-accounting is trivial. If you work as a team, the points you earn are determined by the product of the points for the work x your understanding of the work. Points for the work and your understanding for the work will be judged in an in-person interview taking ~20 mins during finals week, by class staff.
There are 5 buckets you can earn points in, based on the scope, quality and your understanding of the work.
The buckets are:
- Front-End (includes web and mobile clients)
- API Logic (e.g. a REST API)
- Processing (e.g. non-trivial algorithms, bit-coin interaction, ML systems)
- Storage (e.g. S3, Database tech)
- DevOps (e.g. Continuous Integration, Deployment and Monitoring, SDLC infrastructure)
