Our Company

Banging Rocks creates Virtual Reality for positive impact, with an emphasis on transdisciplinary arts.

Group Works: Junior React Architect

Group Works is an open source card deck for facilitators, giving a pattern language of facilitated process that helps make meetings and other events more meaningful, productive and connective.

Banging Rocks is creating a React Native application that helps facilitators use the deck effectively for consultation, event planning, debriefing and more.

The Project

This project pairs a junior developer with our senior developer to help us plan out implementation. Together, these two will help develop a team to create an MVP version of the software.

The Student

The student may be new to react, but should have a strong grounding in software development and design, experience in the field desired but not required. They should have an understanding of how to scope & define a project and its subcomponents, and how to frame them suitably for an agile team to deliver.

The deliverables include:

- Shared creation of a development plan and task list

- Shared creation of job and project descriptions suitable for Riipen or other platforms so that we can assemble a suitable development team

- Assistance in some preliminary development and prototyping.

The student will be working closely with the project’s Lead Programmer.

Students will be added to the Banging Rocks Slack, with a dedicated support channel for the project. We will ensure any messages or emails with questions on the project are answered within 24 hours, and will provide opportunities for students to ask any questions about both the project and any other aspect of Banging Rocks’ work (from the technical to administrative to strategic) that they are interested in.

Where appropriate, we will introduce the student to members of our community that are relevant to their work.
