To succeed at CYF, you must successfully deliver a team project, including a “Demo Day” demonstration. Successful delivery includes:

1. 🧑🏿‍💻 Individual criteria
2. 💼 Project criteria
3. 🧑🏾‍🤝‍🧑🏼Team criteria

🧑🏿‍💻 Individual criteria

You must demonstrate the skills description for your role during your team project.

These are mapped in our Team Roles: CodeYourFuture Certification Mappings [external]

You must write your code. 1:1 pairing sessions may happen at any point during your team project or beforehand. You must be able to explain your code to another developer.

To demonstrate you are a full-stack developer, you must build features across the full stack. If you exclusively build front-end features during this project, you will be considered a front end developer.

💼 Project criteria

A successful Launch Project must also meet these criteria:

• It works
• It is deployed, and the link shared with CYF
• The repo is public on Github and the link shared with CYF
• The planning board is public on Github and the link shared with CYF
• It addresses the brief

🧑🏾‍🤝‍🧑🏼 Team criteria

• The Launch Project trainees must work together in an Agile team.
• Developers must meet the contribution guidelines.

In other words

You have to build it together, it has to work, and you have to show us.

CYF has no automatic progress, but many chances exist. If you don’t meet these criteria, you can try again until you do.
