Website Development Position and Practice Choices

As aDev your main responsibility is to undertake website projects to develop CNMCyber websites. To learn about benefits, competencies, history, supervision, and target audiences, please consult the CNM practice job wikipage.

Choice of practice

By default, the Devs choose Projects that suit them best. The Devs can choose between:

• Authorized projects that CNMCyber Customer authorized for funding. Any Dev is welcome to pick any project that he or she would like to practice with.
• Their own projects for which they can request CNMCyber Customer's authorization.

In addition, CNM Cyber Project Managers may ask a Dev to take an urgent or specific project when they understand the Dev's professional capacity. Particularly, that means that the Devs have to choose their first project at least.

Goals and objectives

Each particular Dev establishes their own goals and objectives based on their Career objectives and What Devs produce requirements.

Whether you are a seasoned professional or just starting out, our program can help you achieve your goals and develop the skills you need to succeed in Website Development. This means that the Devs have to choose their first project at least.

How to start

Are you interested in getting started as the Dev? Please follow the step-by-step instructions:

1. Until Website Developer Bootcamp is fully developed, briefly review the following wikipages:
   1. This very wikipage, it describes your website development Practice specifically,
   2. CNM practice job, it describes your Practice generally,
   3. Website project, this describes those projects that could be undertaken to develop websites, not specific to your Practice, but your Practice can correlate to them,
   4. CNMCyber website, it describes the websites you are about to develop, and
   5. CNM Website Projects, it describes those projects that are authorized to practice with.
   Those wikipage contents are neither intuitive nor user-friendly yet; however, if you cannot read them, you cannot work.
2. Ask questions. Questions are a huge part of your work; if you cannot ask, you cannot work. If you prefer videoconferences, attend any CNMCyber This Week event. You will have opportunities to ask questions and get responses in real time.
3. Study this very and CNM practice job wikipages in details to be ready to discuss two topics: a). what paragraph is left unclear and b) what section can be taken out without causing significant damage. You will be offered to discuss those topics during your job interview. Why? If you don't know your job, you cannot work.
4. Be prepared to learn while practicing. For instance, CNM Wiki is one of the Dev's primary tools. The lectios of CNMCyber that cover usage of that wiki include What CNM Wiki Is, Collaboration on Documents, Functions of Wiki, and CNM Wiki at Cyber. However, they cannot cover all that the Devs need. At the same time, the World Wide Web (WWW) contains additional resources for MediaWiki, which is the software behind CNM Wiki. The Devs face similar challenges while learning about DNS, website IA, WordPress, as well as other tools and knowledge frameworks that the CNMCyber Team utilizes in website development.
5. If you are willing to be paid, understand why the Cyber project is undertaken and what value is expected from the Dev. That's simple. If you cannot deliver what CNMCyber Customer pays for, you cannot work. Everything that CNMCyber Customer pays for is stated on this very wikipage.
6. Wait for 2-3 months if you cannot understand what your objectives are. There is a chance that the course and/or videos will be developed out of this wikipage during that time. The introductory courses will be available at https://cert.cnmcyber.com after registering at https://opplet.net/user/register ; the videos will be published on CNM Tube and YouTube. Some of course wiki-materials are linked to WorldOpp Orientation, EmployableU Foundation, and CNMCyber Bootcamps wikipages.
7. At the CNM Website Projects wikipage, pick up the project you would like to practice with. You may have no idea what that particular project is about. First of all, no project is fully clear and, secondly, to learn about one project is always simpler than to learn about many. When you diligently study this very wikipage and understand what your objectives are, you should know how to go about that project. If you cannot pick your project, you cannot start working as the Dev.
8. Present your pick during a CNMCyber This Week event, while stating (a) the project you picked, (b) what you plan to deliver, and (c) how much time you expect to work in order to deliver what you plan to deliver.
9. Wait for CNMCyber Customer's approval or feedback to start your Practice this week or modify your proposal.

Tools

• CNM Agile as a framework for the Devs' conduct of their developments.
• Inplz Page; every learner shall have their CNM WordPress instance to play with. At the same time, we will need to clarify the website builder to include into CNM WordPress. We shall look at Elementor or WordPress Gutenberg.
• CNM Repo is a file repository within CNM Cloud.
• CNM Wiki is the primary tool for website projects generally and development of website ideas, contents, and wiki-based prototypes specifically.
• One more COTS package shall be added for cnmcyber.com landing. Our production instance of CNM WordPress would be CNM Page, but we need to use something simpler for the landing at cnmcyber.com. We look at Ghost, which is written with NodeJS, and, possibly, Grav, which is really lightweight.

What Devs produce

Most importantly, the Devs are expected to achieve their Career objectives and acquire other personal benefits as their result of the Practice. As a part of CNMCyber Team, the Devs are expected to produce measurable outputs in two categories, website deliverables and work documents:

1. Website deliverables, which are those CNMCyber websites, their components, and other CNMCyber products that the Devs are able to produce. CNMCyber Coordinators will further utilize to develop the very CNMCyber websites that the particular Dev practices with.
2. Work documents, which are those documents that support website developments. Particularly, they include those requirements that would allow hiring Careerprise contractors to develop those CNMCyber websites that the Devs don't produce directly, on their own.

In other words, there are no expectations of the Dev's achievements of their own Career objectives. CNMCyber Team expects the Devs to deliver either (a) website components or (b) the documents that would allow those components to produce. The Devs stop practicing with CNMCyber websites and work documents after their delivery. CNMCyber Coordinators further take over their development.

In addition, the Devs may be offered to develop CNMCyber products other than CNMCyber websites. For instance, development of this very wikipage is also a project that the Dev may take on. However, the main focus is on producing deliverables and work documents for CNMCyber websites.

Work documents

Generally speaking, a document is a separate piece that (a) presents data, (b) is composed of texts and/or images, and (c) can further be edited or revised. A document that can no longer be revised, for instance, a transcript of a meeting that has already ended or a statement of work that a contractor has already agreed on, becomes a record.

For the purposes of this wikipage, work documents shall refer to those documents which target the general public regardless of whether those documents are available to the public or not.

The work documents are or might be utilized by one or more of the following audiences:

1. A particular Dev who practices with a particular CNMCyber website shall use the work documents for the development process and reports.
2. Dev's mentors shall use the work documents to assess the Dev's progress and his or her readiness to move further.
3. The other Devs, who will work on other websites in the future, may further utilize it in their Practice as prototypes and training materials.
4. CNMCyber Coordinators shall use some work documents to hire Careerprise contractors in order to develop what the Devs are not able to develop on their own.

In addition, the Devs may practice with those public documents such as website texts that belong to the Public contents. As work products of the Devs, documents shall be published at CNM Wiki.

Product wikipages

For the purposes of this very wikipage, product wikipages refer to descriptions of CNMCyber websites, as well as deliverable requirements, organizational and technical documentation such as standing operating procedures (SOPs), minutes of the meetings, testing and other reports, etc. Those pages are listed at the "CNMCyber Websites" category

Project wikipages

At CNM Wiki, Projects are documented using two types of wikipages:

1. The progress on particular projects is reported on the CNM Website Projects wikipage.
2. Project pages document everything, but progress reports. Those pages are listed at the "CNM Website Projects" category and include project documents such as project charter, asset register, competency register, stakeholder register, requirements traceability matrix, project scope baseline, project schedule baseline, project cost baseline, and acceptance criteria, as well as those communications, memos, meetings, etc. that are related to developments of CNMCyber websites.

Website deliverables

For the purposes of this wikipage, website deliverables refer to those work products that the Devs deliver to CNMCyber Team for further use as cores of CNMCyber websites, their components, or new features of existing websites.

The Devs shall aim to create one or more of the following website deliverables: (a) Public contents, (b) SEO efforts, (c) Website designs, (d) WWW settings, and, finally, (e) System-based websites.

Public contents

For the purposes of this wikipage, public contents refer to those audiovisuals, graphics, and texts that the website visitors shall be able to read, see, and/or hear. As work products of the Devs, texts shall be published at CNM Wiki, while audiovisuals and graphics shall be stored at CNM Repo.

SEO efforts

For the purposes of this wikipage, SEO efforts refer to those action plans that shall improve website's search engine optimization (SEO). As work products of the Devs, action plans shall be published at CNM Wiki.

System-based websites

For the purposes of this wikipage, system-based websites refer to those websites that are powered by one or more content management systems (CMSs). The websites may represent prototypes, minimal viable products (MVPs), or parts of Careerprise Funnel. As work products of the Devs, websites shall be hosted at CNM Cloud.

Website designs

For the purposes of this wikipage, website designs refer to those depictions that represent current or future website's appearance, including single webpages and website IAs overall. As work products of the Devs, final depictions shall be stored at CNM Repo; their thumbs and sketches may emerge at CNM Wiki.

WWW settings

For the purposes of this wikipage, WWW settings refer to those scripts of DNS record, lines of webserver code, and hosting details that are necessary for the website to be accessible on the World Wide Web (WWW). As work products of the Devs, scripts, lines, and details shall be published at CNM Wiki.

Projects

Generally, a project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique work product. They aim to solve a problem and the resulting output. The work product that is created to deliver to its customer is called a deliverable.

On this wikipage, projects specifically refer to those website projects that are undertaken to create What Devs produce. The Devs's deliverables include Website deliverables and Work documents. While working on projects, the Devs are engaged in the What Devs do activities as discussed above.

Authorized projects

Those Projects that are authorized to practice with are listed on the CNM Website Projects wikipage.

DREPD patterns

Main wikipage: DREPD patterns represent the steps in a projects progression.

Although no single straightforward pattern of project advancement efforts, various developments tend to be cyclical. As an example, letters in the DREPD cycle represent five steps:

1. D for "Discovering the issues". To initiate a project, the Devs shall identify the website need that they would like to satisfy. Outside of website development, we can compare this step with a situation in which someone realizes that he or she needs a better Internet access.
2. R for "Researching the grounds". To start the initiated project, the Devs shall study the website needs and work environments in some depth. Outside of website development, we can compare this step with someone's search for available Internet service provider's offers after he or she realized that they need to improve their Internet access.
3. E for "Envisioning the results". To plan the researched project, the Devs shall imagine what the solutions should look like. Outside of website development, we can compare this step with someone's decision what Internet access they are willing to purchase.
4. P for "Planning the production". To execute the project plan, the Devs shall decide how the imagined solution should be developed. Outside of website development, we can compare this step with someone's plans for how they purchase the needed Internet access and how they pay for it.
5. D for "Doing to move forward". To start a new DREPD cycle, the Devs shall act on the plan, observe real situations, and re-identify the website need. Actually, the action verbs in that step starts with D; do what is planned, detect what hasn't been expected, and discover new wills. That new discovery may start a new cycle; new data shall emerge while doing and/or after getting something done. Outside of website development, we can compare this step with someone's purchase of Internet access and getting lessons learned in order to make the next purchase better.

This cycle or, to be more exact, cycle of cycles, can be applied to various types of developments, including audiovisuals, minimum viable products (MVPs), textual contents, prototypes, and website IA.

In the meanwhile, the Devs are encouraged to apply at least one DREPD cycle to every task mentioned in the What Devs do section above.

Project variety

Main wikipage: Website project

The website project wikipage presents a general, not specific to the Cyber, variety of website development endeavors.

Sprint

In CNM Agile, a sprint refers to the completion of DREPD cycles that lead to a desirable deliverable work-product state. One sprint typically lasts for 3-5 weeks.

Projects of projects

Problem, solution, and project

Any authentic website is a unique deliverable by itself. A Website is made up of of different elements like audiovisuals, designs, DNS records, images, and texts, each of these elements needs to be developed and delivered before the website can be launched.

So, a bigger deliverable, which is a website in that case, is an aggregate of several smaller deliverables. Therefore, the website development consists of many projects. Several projects shall be undertaken in order to develop one website; several projects shall also be undertaken in order to develop each website component.

The Devs normally practice with those projects that are listed on the CNM Website Projects wikipage; however, the Devs can also propose and initiate other other projects.

Problem recognition

To demonstrate how it may work, let's take the following hypothetical scenario:

Marie a Dev, noticed that the landing screen of your website needs some background. After researching the requirements, she came up with a solution involving drawing. Marie is now working on a project to implement this solution. Marie describes the future video. She is not a graphic designer, but she may create a sketch or just describe that drawing in order to help CNMCyber Coordinators hire needed designers.

Solution idea

To demonstrate how it may work, let's take the following hypothetical scenario:

Tnya aDev, found a problem with the landing screen of the kryvi.com website which needs some background. Tanya researched the constraints and came up with a solution by creating a drawing. Now, she is undertaking the solution idea project while planning for that drawing to be created. Tanya is not a graphic artist, but she is sketching and describing that drawing in order to help CNMCyber Coordinators hire needed designers.

Solution development

To demonstrate how it may work, let's take the following hypothetical scenario:

1. Solution development project. Nadia is a graphic artist and is seeking opportunities in her field. While working as the Dev, she discovered CNMCyber's need to have a drawing for their kryvi.com website's landing screen. Nadia carefully reviewed available sketches and descriptions. To understand the constraints, Nadia attended a Careerprise conference. She was directed to the standing operating procedure (SOP) that described CNMCyber's policies and requirements related to image acquisitions. Particularly, Nadia found out that the drawings shall be submitted to CNM Repo in the SVG format. Then, Nadia envisioned the desired deliverable. After that, Nadia planned for her drawing to be created. Specifically, she decided how she would draw the solution and submit it as a deliverable and estimated her time commitment. Nadia proposed her plan to CNMCyber Coordinators and was hired as a Careerprise contractor in addition to her Dev role. Now, Nadia is undertaking the solution development project while creating the drawing in order to deliver it to CNMCyber Coordinators.

Solution deployment

To demonstrate how it may work, let's take the following hypothetical scenario:

Anna a Dev, identified a problem with landing screen of your website requires a background. After researching the constraints, Anna envisioned some drawing as the solution for that problem. Now, she is undertaking the solution idea project while planning for that drawing to be created. She describes the future video. Although not a graphic designer, Anna can either create a sketch or describe that drawing in order to help CNMCyber Coordinators hire needed designers.

Website-core projects

Websites are complex products, so are their production. For the purposes of this very wikipage, website-core projects refer to those website projects that are undertaken to develop the core of websites rather than their components such as Public contents, SEO efforts, and non-essential WWW settings. Thus Website-Core Projects focus on developing the main structure and components of a website.

Among Website designs, CNMCyber Team classifies website IAs as the backbone of the website core, while graphic design and UX design as parts of Careerprise Funnel.

Website idea

A new website starts with an idea; which can be expressed through words or sketches on CNM Wiki platform uploaded there as files. These sketches serve as drafts for the websites overall structure known as the website IA.

Wiki-based prototype

The CNMCyber Team utilizes CNM Wiki to develop early functional websites. Each webpage is represented by a separate Wikipage acting as a prototype. Internal site links shall be made manually. Titles of webpage prototypes on CNM Wiki shall have the webpage name starting with a capital letter between [Domain-name] and the word, (prototype) in parenthesis, for instance, CNMCyber.com About-us (prototype). The landing webpage is named "Home", for example, CNMCyber.com Home (prototype). All prototype pages belong to the [Domain-name] Prototypes category format under the Category: Website Prototypes.

CMS-based prototype

The CNMCyber Team utilizes content management systems like CNM WordPress for website development. The Devs normally transfer website textual contents from CNM Wiki to a CMS-based prototype. Placeholders are used for audiovisual elements that are not yet developed and lorem ipsum is used as a substitute for future texts.

Website MVP

A minimum viable product is an early version of a CNMCyber website that includes enough features to satisfy early adopters. The Devs implement the website IA on a CMS and make website accessible on WWW. At this stage, Lorem ipsum shall no longer be used and audiovisual placeholders shall not look like construction pieces at the MVP stage of development.

Website marketable

A CNMCyber website is designed to be marketable and contribute to the Careerprise Funnel. During the Practice phase, the Devs usually don't focus marketable aspects of the website. However, after completing the Website Development quarter of the Bootcamp, they can work on website marketability as Careerprise Contractors.
