For new collaborator

A short and painless introduction into the Smart Process Lab (SPL) Team.

Hereafter some informations as new SPL collaborator. You can look into it once you have some free time. Feel free to ask the teammembers anything anytime.

Project

A list of some SPL project can be found on the project page of the official SPL page.

Microsoft Teams

We use intensively teams, we have a Smart Process Lab Scrum channel additionally each project has its own channel too. Teams is mainly used for communication not for file sharing.

Normally for each Project a seperate team is created. Ask the project manager for inviting your to the team.

All old projects are archived in the network drive filer01.hevs.ch/FS_PROJETS/SmartProcessLab/Projects/.

One Drive

With each Team Channel there is a Onedrive automatically created. You can view the files online or sync it locally via Onedrive app in Windows or Linux.

Notion

Notion is a platform where the SPL group implemented the tools for the SCRUM work methodology. There are multiple pages dedicated to specific tasks.

  • SPL Workspace
    • Kanban - The official Kanban board with all current tasks for the sprint are listed. These card will be moved during the Daily Standup as well as the Sprint planning.
    • To-Do Extern - Work to be done by persones external. That way we don't forget to push these people to do their work.
    • Meeting Notes - For every meeting a meeting note can be created and edited my multiple persons during the meeting in real-time.
    • Retrospective - At the end of each SCRUM retrospective the SPL group performs an analyses of the work methodology.
    • Projects - Quick information about projects if needed subpages can be created. Main documentation has to be done in SPL Projects

MkDoc Webpages

This website is an integral part of the SPL work methodology. Everyone is encouraged and even required to write content on this website. The content is written in markdown language. to get to know how to write content checkout the Cheatsheet and the How to write Docs pages. There are three different webpages live at the moment.

  • SPL-Website: General information about the SPL, for promotional activities
  • SPL-Docs: General information about programming tools, code, spl admin stuff and internal (non constellium projects)
  • Constellium-Docs: Non public webpage for Constellium related confidential informations
  • Hevslib-python: Documentation about our own python library with some modules helping programming in python

The Webpages are a live construct and anybody is free and even encouraged to add/change information to it. If something is wrong of missing, just do it.

Code

We use mainly our internal gitlab to manage the code and use always and only git repos 😉. In gitlab there is a dedicated group called SPL there are multiple subgroups.

Additionally there are three special repos for the Documentation on the root of the SPL Group.

Styleguides

Tools

We don't really have common tools, every project works a bit differently and every collaborator prefers other tools. Many project are using python and therefore some recommendations from my side:

Windows only

Linux only

  • Krusader as a proper file explorer
  • Fsearch to find quickly any file or folder
  • oh my ZSH to replace the default linux shell

All platforms
