Handoff Plan

Introduction:

As part of the handoff plan, we will deliver the finalized code to the client through our private GitHub repository. The code that we have been developing over the semester has been done so as branches on our clients private GitHub repository. He has access to the branches and plans to merge our code into the rest of the codebase before the ending of the class. Accompanying the code is comprehensive documentation detailing project structure, key functionalities, and other necessary explanations of what has been developed.

Code Delivery and Repository Access

  • GitHub Repository: The finalized code will be delivered through our private GitHub repository. This repository contains all the development branches used throughout the project and the client has access to all of these branches to pull changes if needed.
  • Branch Management: The client has been granted access to these branches and plans to merge our code into the main codebase of their ongoing project before the end of the class.
  • Notably as per the client’s requirements, hosting is not required. Only the development code is submitted as the app is still in the stage of development at this current moment.

Documentation Support

  • Comprehensive Documentation: Along with the code, we will provide detailed documentation that includes:
    • An overview of the project structure.
    • Descriptions of key functionalities and features developed.
    • Guidelines and explanations for all parts of the code we developed.
    • Any specific instructions or notes relevant to the integration of our work with the existing codebase.

Client’s Development Environment

  • Development Tool Compatibility: The code we developed is fully compatible with Xcode. This is the client’s current existing development environment and it ensures they can continue the development of their iOS app using the same application IDE.
  • Client’s Expertise: Given that the client has been actively involved in the development of this app, they are well-equipped to handle the retrieval, integration, and further maintenance of the code.
