Day-by-Day Schedule

Week 1 · EveryoneWeeks 2–3 · Split tracksDays 12–15 · Capstone

Three weeks plus a closing capstone block, ~6 hours of hands-on work per day plus assigned courses. Week 1 is everyone; Weeks 2–3 run the two tracks in parallel; Days 12–15 are a cross-functional capstone. Checkpoints land on Days 3, 6, 11, and 15.

Daily rhythm for the lead: 15-min morning briefing (today's goal, yesterday's gaps), hands-on blocks below, end-of-day 10-min standup where each person says what they shipped.

All work happens in the sandbox training repo(s) from the README pre-flight — never on client code. “Course:” lines refer to the course catalog. Ticking “Mark day as complete” on a day page is saved in this browser, or to your Google account when you sign in.

Everyone

Everyone, Days 12–15. One real-ish mini-product: “client” (the lead) wants a feature for the training app.
