v4.0.0

GoLocal Milestone Four

This release focuses on wrapping up the frontend and providing functionality to all components that we had added in the skeleton of the frontend.

• A /posts route was added to the frontend. This post route dynamically lists and shows all of the posts that are currently in the database. It has the comment of the post itself, a timestamp, and a post Id attached to it.
• The /profile route was fully implemented. This profile route allows a user to set their preferences and edit any information they want too about their profile.
• Functionality to the search bar was added. There is now a search bar where a user can input a query and then toggle between users, posts, and businesses for what they want to search for.
• The /company route was fully finished. Now when you go to this route, it lists all businesses that are in the database for users to find.

Notes

• To implement the search bar, a backend route was created. This route is inside of the backend/app/routers/search.py dir. This made it easier for completing the frontend side of that task.
• Originally we were going to use a Google Maps API to only show companies that are nearby the user. This was beyond our skill set and provided to be a very challenging task so it had to be dropped. Now in the /company route, it just lists all businesses that are in the database dynamically.

The rest of the release notes were generated using a configuration in .github/release.yml at main
