A

Hi everyone uh welcome to digital experience. This is our iteration retro, uh we'll go over things that went well and things to improve. On from the last two week period, um it's Thursday July, 27th. uh First for things that went well is Barker yeah.

B

I just wanted to call out the work that Megan did in um firing up a proof of concept for a gitlab Argo integration. There's a video that walks through it there's an issue and there's some code um so and it's awesome and the video is really great, so I just wanted to call out great job Megan, that's going to be really helpful to build out our continuous localization system, uh Pastor Laura.

A

uh Yeah, um if anyone hasn't seen the PM group release, video Mateo showed a little preview of what he's been working on for the blog and it looks like the blog like it's done like it's complete. It's finished I, try to blog one time and got like a single text link to appear on the page. um So it's really cool to see, see it come together and work with contentful um yeah uh Jess.

C

I want to shout out Margaret for doing a last minute engineering job on The Tib report page. It looks amazing. um We worked with an agency on that, so it wasn't necessarily just straight slippers components, but she whipped it up real, fast and and worked really hard on it, and it looks great.

C

Margaret, do you want to add your comment.

D

Yep Cheryl back to Jess for just making this design uh feel like part of our brand of our bar experience website. uh She did it just in a couple of minutes. uh It was very fast, so uh great work. Everyone also shout out to Nathan, Javi and Justin for staying like I think a little bit late to help us merge that tomorrow. So thank you. Everyone for the work.

E

Yeah I just want to reiterate, and thanks Mark and Jess and Justin and everyone else that was very chaotic. We had the agency gave just for context. The agency gave us the designs Monday morning and it had to be out Tuesday evening and then even then there was like changes that came then. So um a lot of teamwork, a lot of great collaboration. So thanks everyone.

F

That's why I think everyone pick up slack when I was on vacation Nathan Laura, leaving teams, as you do, and then felsa and Lauren for, like picking up any other sock that probably came up and I'm sure Phil says, would rather have not had to deal with that uhb thing right away, but thanks for any of that stuff as well.

G

Thank you for that that doc you sent us before you you went on on PTO was awesome. I really appreciated it, because I made planning and all that a lot easier.

G

I think I have the next one on things to improve on and this one's just um I just find like uh I would like to start maybe creating issues for for things to talk about like we have a lot of great conversations and improvements we want to make like I've heard, just get thrown around just sorry with the T for um JavaScript testing. We talked about bringing up a storybook and our experience and then like a retro game. So we have a lot of really good ideas.

G

I just find we never make issues for these, so uh I'm sure we can get these into our iterations. We just have to start creating the issues I'm guilty of it as well, but that'd be cool to start getting this stuff done.

G

And Laura I think you got the last one.

A

Thanks uh yeah just a little farewell message: all these you've done so much work for the team and we're gonna miss you and make sure you uh keep in touch, and you know we'll see you Monday morning for Spirit planning and we'll uh assign you some issues and um but no uh yeah I see that you dropped your link there. So you know Reach Out, keep in touch love the background. Keep that forever. Also.

H

For sure this is the lucky background.

H

Okay, yeah I'll, I'll, post some stuff I have still some pending and issues some improvements that were only stuck on my head, so once I I will have some time free time so yeah when I finish them, I'll I think all the teams so so check it out and.

A
