BloomBox is a mobile application Android devices that provides support for plant caring. It will create reminders for user to let them know when is the right time to water their plants. Users will be able to access their garden page, where all their plants are stored. By navigating to the selected plant page, the user will access the diary section, where they can browse their plant notes and write new entries to monitor their plant growth. Users can also create locations with common settings that will make plant creation a quicker process, while still giving users the option to specify custom settings if needed.
To enable comunication between frontend and backend, in /BloomBoxApp/src/config.js replace existing BASE_URL with your own.
