* what worked well
	* We have a working letter carousel on the home page, as well as a basic detail viewing page! 
	* ![post some progress screenshots]()
	* Made progress on design and app navigation![](https://i.imgur.com/LMQD1iq.png)

* what didn't
	* Had to spend time fixing some bugs
	* async UI bugs: UI renders before fetching information finishes, causing UI to render twice (home screen, e.g., and sign up page when you sign out)
	* Weird glitch with letter carousel
	    * Part of side letter cut off


* self assessment on progress
	* where are you in relation to progress towards product and milestones?
	    * making good progress on an MVP, just need to polish up the compose stack (add themes, theme previews, font, and font preview) + the archive feature on the detail page should actually do something
	* give an estimate of how far towards your goals you are, do you think you're on track?
	    * Final UI: 40%
	        * Made progress on creating reusable components which should speed up design in the future
	        * More screens and components need to be build in the coming week and next term to improve the UX
        * Backend: 
        * Custom Fonts: 
            * Imported default fonts
            * Still in the early stages of creating user custom font but we are continuing research/building out prototypes.
* lay out *each* of the following weeks till end of term with brief goals for each
	* current week (9): complete MVP and get ready for Technigala
	    * work on Natalie's feedback
	    * might have to nix the friends for now (doing archive UI + sort, etc, is going to take effort that would be better spent polishing compose stack)
    *  week 10: implement Natalie's feedback, present at Technigala
* briefly summarize any other topics/discussions
    * Priorities:
        * Compose Screen
        * Bug with the asynchronous fetching -- figure out how to render a screen only once all the information is fetched from the backend
        * Letter previews
        * unopened letter vs opened letter UI
        * Font loading on previews
    * Save for next term:
        * Friends Screen 
            * Adding/Removing friends
        * Archive
        * Customized handwriting
