The Wanderly project proved to be an enlightening and rewarding experience for our team, blending technical challenges with collaborative problem-solving to create a practical travel management system.
Our team worked cohesively to divide tasks and tackle different components of the application. Each member brought unique strengths to the table. Some members focused on the frontend while others took more of a backend role.
Each member independently developed and tested specific app functionalities, sharing deliverables at the end of each sprint to. When encountering challenges, team members took on individual research tasks, exploring documentation or debugging issues. Collective brainstorming sessions allowed the group to find solutions efficiently.
