03Submission and evaluation

What you hand in, and how it is judged

  • You submit

  • A GitHub repository

    The full source, with a commit history that shows how the work progressed.

  • A live deployment

    The application running at a public address, not just on your machine.

  • Documentation

    A README and notes covering setup, structure and the decisions you made.

  • Evaluated on

  • Functionality

    Does the application do what the brief asks, reliably?

  • Code quality

    Is the code organised, readable and sensible to maintain?

  • Deployment

    Does it run live, and could someone else deploy it?

  • Documentation

    Could a new developer understand and run it from your notes?

  • Engineering process

    Does the commit history show steady, thoughtful progress?
