Hello!

As you can see from the points above the board is a continuation of the good habits expanding where possible. Adding more changes over time to my current foundation will allow me to progress at a manageable pace. The blue shaded areas show where progress has been made and mark a direct continuation from the previous sprint.

Hopefully I'll have even more updates for you and awesome progress as the second sprint progresses.

Cheers!
