Prototype / Mission [2/7] completed done

From the MindMap, we can identify and list the different features needed for the core experience of our prototype. We may not build everything: as we add more ideas to the list, we will build a BACKLOG which will need to be PRIORITIZED. We now need to translate these features into DEVELOPMENT TASKS and build a KANBAN.
First, let's play a short quiz about features & tasks!
