Day 25 of 100 Days of Code & Scrum: Physical Therapy and Company Website Planning

Greetings!

Today, I went out for my Physical Therapy session so I couldn't spend much time coding. However, I got 3 hours in, which I'm pretty content with for a day with impediments. I also started planning for the requirements and features of my company's website, so I wrote some user stories along with another developer today.

Anyway, let's move on to my daily report!

Yesterday

I learned about two forms of rendering in Next.js. Also, I read about getStaticProps, getStaticPaths, and getServerSideProps. I kept on pushing through Scrum and XP from the Trenches.

Today

Here are the things I learned and worked on today:

Next.js

  • Web crawlers are used by search engines to navigate a website to discover other websites and its pages.
  • Here is how the Googlebot indexes webpages:
    • find URLs
    • add the URLs to the Crawl Queue
    • make an HTTP request
    • Render Queue
    • if all criteria are met, the page may be indexed and shown in search results.
  • There are 4 rendering strategies in Next.js:
    • Static Generation - the page HTML is generated during build time.
    • Server-side Rendering - the page HTML is generated during each request.
    • Incremental Static Generation - static generation on a page-by-page basis.
    • Client-side Rendering - websites are rendered entirely using JavaScript.
  • I learned more about crawling and indexing, including status codes, robots.txt, XML sitemaps, special tags, and canonical tags.

Scrum

  • wrote user stories for my company website.
  • I continued to read Scrum and XP from the Trenches.
  • part-time team members in Scrum are rarely a good idea.
  • rearranging teams between sprints are best done at the beginning and only for long-term changes afterwards.
  • cross-component teams tend to be better most of the time than component-specialized teams.
  • synchronizing the sprints of multiple teams is better than overlapping.

I really had a great time today, even if the day felt really short!

I hope everyone's doing well!
