Week 10: Capstone Sprint (Real Feature)

Capstone week proves independent delivery. Students scope, implement, test, document, and demo a medium feature across key architecture layers.

Learning Objectives

  • Plan feature scope for one-week completion.
  • Implement across UI, API, and provider-aware behavior.
  • Write meaningful tests for critical paths.
  • Prepare review-ready PR and clear demo narrative.

Detailed Topics

1. Scope and Delivery Planning

Break the feature into milestones: data model, API updates, UI flow, tests, and rollout notes. Keep the first slice small and shippable.

2. Cross-Layer Consistency

Ensure contracts remain aligned from frontend form state to API payload to provider responses. Avoid one-off shortcuts in business logic.

3. Review and Demo Readiness

A strong capstone includes architecture rationale, risk notes, verification steps, and a concise demo script.

Pair Session Plan (90 Minutes)

  1. Finalize feature scope and acceptance criteria.
  2. Draft implementation and test checklist.
  3. Review architecture boundaries before coding.
  4. Plan demo and feedback loop.

Independent Ticket

Deliver one end-to-end feature with tests for success, failure, and edge cases, then present it in a guided demo.

Mentor Checkpoint

  • Student can deliver with minimal prompting.
  • Student handles review feedback professionally.
  • Student articulates tradeoffs and future improvements.
