Fostering Availability Prototype
The prototype uses predefined data. One child that is hardcoded in the templates, and a selection of foster parents in JSON format here
The first page of the prototype 'find child' is there for display purposes only i.e entering data and submitting this page takes you 'child confirmation' page that shows the name, age, sex of the same child.
The next page shows the parents from the JSON file. The filters are there for display purposes only apart from the Types of foster care approved for filter which submits the form with GET param that us used to perform array.filter on the foster parent data. any foster parent can be added to my list using the add to list button. This submits POST request and the handler will add or remove a selected flag that denotes the foster parent being in my list.
The my list page filters out foster parents that are not selected and hence displays selected parents.
You can view the full profile of the child or a chosen parent. The child profile page has a link to the diary review application
