Makes life easier when trnasferring files. LD: Small box cutter - as an architect also use it for making models (maquettes) NA: calipers 😉 # Exercises **Goal:** The goal of these exercises is to help you set up a simple testing framework with a free, simple and available tool that is widely used by open source communities in software and hardware development. **Hopefully these exercises will help you work further in your project using an agile-like project management approach.** ## Exercise 1: Create a progress board :::warning Your comments bellow ::: Vincent: https://github.com/studiorabota/wiggle-bin/issues ## Exercise 2: Pick up a hypothesis that is core to your project and design several experiments using the test cards :::warning Your comments bellow ::: Vincent: https://github.com/studiorabota/wiggle-bin/issues ## Feedback ### How do you find the material not very useful: long: Very basic: to the point: very advanced: ### Other remarks: ### What topics or aspects were you expecting that we missed?
