Nov 17 SQL

To add more functionality to the APP, I have to mess with SQL.

Basically I have to figure out how to structure my table of relationship, that is my conclusion after talking to Melissa.

I am stuck on installing mySQLworkBanch.   according to my treehouse tutorial I am supposed to see an very different launch page. I am not sure what is going on here. Maybe my version is too new???

Nov 15 , Victories of 13 is so much cooler than victory of one person.

It has been 2 days, since Friday, our demo day. I can still feel the excitement pumping in my chest. It simply feels awesome, when you see people around you all grow together and succeeded.

 Also, I have to say, learning swift makes me looking at my App from a whole new prospective. Now when there is an App in front of me. I break it down to pieces, collection Views, table Views, tab bars, navigation bars, all embedded components. How much alteration they have done base of the default one, how complicated is their logic, and how complicated is the database. 

Oh, talking about database.  This is the project of the week. I am refreshing my acknowledge of database design(we learned it from school 8 years ago, but never able to implant it into our project ).


Later of the week, the Whack-A-Mole App's database will be redesign, and more function will be add ed to the App.  Wish me good luck!
