This week you'll be completing a Django backend to support a multi-user dungeon (MUD) game called LambdaMUD. The backend is partially written, but needs to be completed.
In addition, you'll write a frontend to interface with the game.
Push notifications will be implemented using the Pusher API so that other players can see when you've walked into a room, etc.
You are to treat this week as if you are working at a company and the instructor is your client. The project managers will be your main support throughout the week.
The main objective of this week is to develop the MVP feature set listed below using any other technologies you have learned here at Lambda School. There are design files in this repository you should use as a creative guide.
- You are required to showcase progress with at least 1 commit a day. This will let your project manager know where you are and if you need help. This also allows the client to get progress reports from the company in a real world setting.
