This project will focus on building a modern web-based To-Do List application. We will build it from scratch to a fully functioning modern application in just 4 hours.
Part 1 will be a two hour session dedicated to modeling and building the PHP backend. We will start off discussing the domain model of a To-Do List application and come up with the functionality we'd like to implement. Then, we'll hit the code and start writing some tests and implementations. Finally, we'll add HTML output and start exercising our application code.
We will be working with the following packages and tools: Composer, Symfony 4, Symfony Flex, Doctrine ORM, Doctrine Migrations, phpunit, and PHP 7.2+.
By the end of the session, we will have a functional To-Do List application. But don't expect it to look pretty. We will take care of that during the next session!
