Guild Meet

Guild Meet is a website designed to make planning for your nerdy events easy. Schedule events that your group mates can sign up to attend. In the future, campaign groups will be implemented, allowing for a more exclusive membership status and for private usage of the schedule feature.

Technology Used

This website uses a combination of many languages, frameworks, and packages to create a working backend API and frontend website. Some of these technologies include

• Python
• Flask
• SQL Alchemy
• React
• Redux
• AWS

Set Up

Getting started

1. Clone this repository (only this branch).

2. Install dependencies.

   pipenv install -r requirements.txt

3. Create a .env file based on the example with proper settings for your development environment.

4. Make sure the SQLite3 database connection URL is in the .env file.

5. This starter organizes all tables inside the flask_schema schema, defined by the SCHEMA environment variable. Replace the value for SCHEMA with a unique name, making sure you use the snake_case convention.

6. Get into your pipenv, migrate your database, seed your database, and run your Flask app:

   pipenv shell

   flask db upgrade

   flask seed all

   flask run

7. The React frontend has no styling applied. Copy the .css files from your Authenticate Me project into the corresponding locations in the react-vite folder to give your project a unique look.

8. To run the React frontend in development, cd into the react-vite directory and run npm i to install dependencies. Next, run npm run build to create the dist folder. The starter has modified the npm run build command to include the --watch flag. This flag will rebuild the dist folder whenever you change your code, keeping the production version up to date.

Character Sheet

Users have the ability to create a character. There are a few characters already provided for the demo account. Each character has a unique ability score set. In the future, users will be able to choose personalized equipment and spells to create a truly unique character. For now all equipment and many stats are preset based on class recommendations

The character creation is split up into three separate pages. Navigating back and forth is possible between pages however the site wont let you move to the next page until all information is filled in and valid.

Once a character has been created, the page will navigate to the characters page with your newly created character selectable in the drop down menu.
