- Action: Communicate directly with the client to understand their specific requirements.
- Procedure:
- If given direct access, schedule a meeting or use communication tools like email or project management software (e.g., Jira, Notion) to discuss needs.
- If not, coordinate with a senior team member to gain access or detailed project briefs.
- Document all requirements clearly for reference throughout the project.
- Procedure:
- Action: Establish a local development environment.
- Procedure:
- Choose a local server:
- ddev: For containerized environments, beneficial for version control and consistency.
- XAMPP: For quick setups with Apache, MySQL, PHP, and Perl, but might need more manual configuration for complex setups.
- Setup:
- Install the chosen software.
- Initialize a new project or clone from a repository.
- Ensure all necessary services are running (like MySQL if required).
- Choose a local server:
- Procedure:
- Action: Translate client requirements into a functional design.
- Procedure:
- Review any provided design mock-ups or wireframes.

- Use Git for version control, committing changes with descriptive messages.
- Regularly cross-check the design with requirements to ensure alignment with client expectations.
- Procedure:
- Action: Work in iterative cycles to meet client expectations.
- Procedure:
- Develop in sprints, focusing on parts of the site.
- Conduct local testing for functionality and responsiveness.
- Incorporate feedback:
- Present progress to the client or seniors for review.
- Adjust based on feedback received.
- Iterate until the project meets or exceeds expectations.
- Procedure:
- Action: Prepare for deployment or project handover.
- Procedure:
- Perform final quality checks, including cross-browser testing and performance optimization.
- Document:
- Project setup.
- Custom configurations.
- How to run the project locally or deploy it.
- Ensure all code is committed to version control for future reference or team collaboration.
