CSCI 4513 - Advanced Web Programming
After Brokkr and Sindri forged Mjölnir in the fires of their forge, the hammer was not yet complete. The handle was too short, the balance imperfect.
They spent days grinding, polishing, and refining the details. Each imperfection was carefully addressed. Each rough edge was smoothed away.
It was not the forging that made Mjölnir legendary—it was the refinement.
Today, you are at the grinding stone. Polish your treasure until it shines.
This entire class period is dedicated to working on your portfolio project with instructor and peer support available.
Professor bobby will be circulating the room. Raise your hand or call me over when you need assistance.
Stuck on a bug? Let's work through it together.
Not sure how to add a feature? I'll guide you.
Want UI/UX advice? Let me take a look.
Trouble deploying? We'll get it live.
💬 You can help each other!
If you finish early or just want to take a break, help a classmate. Fresh eyes often spot bugs faster. Plus, explaining concepts reinforces your own understanding.
⏰ You have the full class period. Use it wisely!
💡 Pro Tip: Set small, achievable goals. "Fix the login bug" is better than "finish the entire app."
By the end of today, you should have made visible progress on your portfolio project.
Remember: This is not due at the end of class, but you should use this time productively. Your portfolio project is what employers will see!
