This application was built by four web developers at the UNC Charlotte Web Development Bootcamp. While taking the course, the developers thought that it would be more beneficial to have access to all students enrolled in the program. This forum allows for all students enrolled in the full-time and part-time course to have access to each other to discuss homework questions, resources, job information, and any other topics they wish to collaborate on.
UNCC Web Development Bootcamp Forum
AS A bootcamp student,
I WANT to discuss topics with everyone in the Web Development program
SO THAT I can expand my knowledge and resources.
GIVEN I am a bootcamp student,
WHEN I have a question I want to discuss
THEN I create a topic and post it in the student forum to share with every class.
When the user arrives at the landing page, they can read a description of the application and press Continue to be directed to the Forum page.
Clicking on the Create Discussion button will direct the user to the Post page where the user will type in their first and last initials, the title of the topic, and the message the user wants to say. Once they are finished, they will click Create Post and the new discussion will be posted on the Forum page.
On the Forum page, the user can view current Discussions posted, search to find a current Discussion topic, and click on Create Discussion to add one to the page.
