# Stop, Go, Continue (Week 1)

## STOP :hand:

- going off topic toooooo much. Still a bit, but not loads lol. 
- going down rabbit holes (with code)

## GO :point_right:

- Start using primitives more freely

- using BEM naming conventions from the start

- initialise readme from the beginning and take equal turns adding to it. Make a habit of checking readme before lunch and adding to it.

- every hour have a group catch up where:
    - discuss changes we have made, and update if needed (namings)
    - all git push/PR/pull/merge
    - discuss if still need more time as a pair or ready to swap and work on a new issue 
    - discuss if stuck on any code ect , design issues

## CONTINUE :roller_coaster:

- focusing on the MVP

- catching ourselves before we go down rabbit holes (with code)

- being spoons :spoon::spoon:
- being proud of our work, cause we defo should!


- churning out the quality content, both technical and social 

- hablar en español

- being ¡LOUD!

- keep communicating with other team members before/when pushing to github/ letting others know there are PR / git pulls outstanding

---

## Notes

- have a 'code' word for catching ourselves before we go off topic i.e. 'waffle'

- naming conventions: ensure they are all readable early on

- swapping groups every hour or so with regular reviews and set times / reconvening every hour and discuss swapping groups and assessing git pull requests/merge etc.

- Our team dynamic worked really well

- Make time for pair programming and pair someone who is stronger in one area up with another who isn't so strong in that area or wants to learn more
