### Meeting with Supervisor
- Discussed research ethics, supervisor sent the following documents from the research ethics committee:
- Plain language statement.
- Consent form.
- Discussed project definition document:
- Decided on LaTeX document.
- Decided to work on initial draft and then get review from supervisor.
- Discussed final report:
- Decided on LaTeX document.
- Decided to start working on immediately, adding to it as progress is made.
- Focus on including non-trivial progress in report immediately rather than diary.
- Discussed diary:
- Although had set up Confluence for this meeting, decided to use a plain Markdown file to simplify the diary, keep all materials in the one Git repository, and focus on including non-trivial progress in the final report rather than the diary.
- Discussed competitor analysis:
- Table with rows for each "competitor" product and columns for questions about how they do things.
- Decided to include this directly in final report when table created rather than put in diary.
- Decided to focus on primarily developing product as a web app, with a secondary requirement to port it to mobile if possible.
- Discussed React vs React Native:
- React Native is more effort and more difficult to develop in: reduced compatibility with vanilla React.
- Discussed if worth using React Native if focussing on web.
- For time being, decided to focus on React Native development *for web* while maintaining maximum mobile portability. Not focusing on mobile development but trying not to break anything, and attempting to port at the end of development.
- TODO: By end of week, make permanent decision on framework & target platform.
- Since React was originally chosen specifically for React Native, worth considering not using React if only focussing on web development. Other options:
- Apache Cordova for porting to mobile.
- Pure HTML & JavaScript for web app.
- Other frameworks, e.g. Vue.
- Discussed map & plotting libraries:
- Leading choice is Mapbox: works with React Native, free up to 50,000 monthly map loads.
- Action items:
- [ ] Create final report LaTeX document.
- [ ] Add skeleton of PDD to Git repository.
- [ ] Make decision on React vs React Native.
