Project SER316

This is the initial dump for the ser316 spring 2018 project. It is a slightly modified version of the Memoranda project from memoranda.sf.net

The purpose of this project is to enhance the Memoranda application.

Memoranda is a project that has largely been dormant since 2007, so why are we using it? This codebase has been used in the past, it is of sufficient size and scope to challenge your skills in understanding a complete application (it has somewhere in the neighborhood of 25k lines of code). It also has features that just about anyone who has ever used a calendaring application can understand.

In the docs directory is an initial set of analysis models - class diagrams and sequence diagrams in UML, that a previous team did as part of their solution process. These were included only in the event that you may want to use these as a head start on your design and implementation work. You are absolutely not required to use or implement anything in the analysis document!

Your first step should be to clone the github repository (easiest way is to clone directly into your Eclipse Workspace folder). You can watch the short video on how to clone and run Memoranda: https://youtu.be/IDFTxa0tAMs (old version will be updated).

You should also be able to use "gradle run" through the command line.

You should then be able to run the project. The included Gradle script and Wrapper should work. You should be able to use "gradle run" in the command line to run Memorande through Gradle. In due course you will need to add things to the Gradle file (eg. add Unit Test).

Start of with changing little things to get to know Memoranda.

After that go back to the initial version and start your SCRUM process and document all changes through GitHub and Taiga (like I said, if it isn’t in github/taiga it does not count).

Good luck and have fun!
