Focal

Focal is a workflow and client management tool for wedding photographers. It aims to help a photographer consolidate a clients information (personal info, photography packages, shoot events, and private notes) and tie it to a set of workflow tasks.

Future features would include integrating third party services like Google Gmail, Google Calendar or Stripe to reduce context switching for the users. For example, the app would be able to send emails, update their calendars, or send invoices directly from the workflow tasks.

The project is built in React and works with a Elixir/Phoenix API. Other dependencies include react-testing-library, formik, date-fns, axios, sass, react-router, moment, jest. Note that the project is hosted on Heroku free-plan which has slow spin up times -- Please give it a few seconds to load.
