We envisioned the project to solve the problems faced by 21st-century learners. A modern learner finds a flood of resources from Google Search but doesn't always find the right resources since it's the website with the best SEO (search engine optimisation) that wins. There are so many free resources available on the internet made by experts in their field and yet we pay for outdated courses promoted by big companies and universities.

With Footsteps app & browser extension, we take a mentor/subject knowledge expert first approach to solve the problem. The domain experts save their learning journey with our app and browser extension & make it available for everyone else to follow. Every resource is called a 'footstep' (added in a chronological manner) and a collection of footsteps makes up a learning path. The learner can "fork" the learning path made by the expert and keep a track of his progress. The app suggests resources & keeps an updated list with users upvotes & collaborative filtering.

Here are few examples of why we came up with footsteps:

1. Put all the code in one of the existing files in /src . If you add a new file, make a relavent modification to build.js .

2. If you want to modularize the code, use the /src/lib folder. Put all the modules there and require() them from /src . This will not need any modification to the build.js file.

3. Push all the code to your own branch. Once you are sure its working, merge it with dev branch. Let's maintain only the stable and released versions on the master branch.

4. Write kick-ass, readable and clean code.

5. Load the /build folder in chrome://extensions/ on chrome (Load unpacked)
