Leveraged React Native’s highly portable nature so that our app can be implemented across multiple platforms. We did this to enable widespread availability.

Lessons learned

We learned how to segment tasks but also work together when things got complicated. Taking breaks is essential, even if it’s for a brief moment. Everyone needs to recharge so they can continue to give full effort. No one person should have to deal with the pain of scouring through many lines of code alone. Debugging is often a collaborative process that can be made easier with teamwork.
