CLICK HERE to access the deployed application.
When I enter the homepage, I am presented with a user friendly interface, with a nicely styled logo and pallete, an alert to create an account, a 'Login/Sign Up' button, a default widget "Astronomy Picture of the Day" and a footer to access information about the developers.
When I click on the 'Login/Sign Up' button, I am presented with a modal with a tab to login or sign up. To sign up I need to input my username, email, and password. To login, I need to enter is the created username and password. Then I press sign up or login and it will redirect me to the dashboard page.
When I login for the first time, I am presented with an empty dashboard and a 'Add Widget' button that opens a drop-down menu that displays a diverse list of widgets that I can click to add to my dashboard.
When I select a widget, it will be displayed on my dashboard and I can drag the widget using 'Drag from here' and position the widget anywhere I would like within the dashboard.
I am allowed to add as many widgets as I would like to, but each widget can be added only once and the widgets added will be saved even upon refresh.
When I no longer want a widget on my dashboard, I can click the 'Delete' button in its card to delete it.
When I am in my dashboard page, I can click the Logout button if I want to sign out and it will redirect me to the home page.
