Team Communication

Each morning we will have a quick team meeting to update everyone on the group's progress and to establish and delegate new tasks. It is expected that each team member will attend each meeting and arrive on time and prepared to contribute. If there is a valid reason that a team member is unable to attend a scheduled meeting it is expected that they will notify the group and catch up on what was covered at a later date. Collectively the team has decided to make use of WeChat to contact each other. This platform allows fast relay of messages and easy sharing of links and photos. The GitHub repository will be used to save, share and collaborate on all our work.

28/06/19	During our final meeting of week 1 our team settled on our app idea.
