ProjectKanri is a a project management web application, similar in concept to GitHub's Projects page. As a user, you can create a new project and populate it with subprojects or tasks as we call them. You can keep track of the status of those tasks, whether they're still to-do, in progress, in review, or completed. You can also, using email, invite other users to join your project and assign them to particular tasks. And you don't have to worry about bad actors wreaking havoc on your project - you can set different permissions for users (admin or regular) so they can only edit tasks they're assigned to or have created.
On the back end: Built on Node.js, Express.js, Passport.js for user authentication, Mongoose to manage our MongoDB database, and Nodemailer to send emails using Gmail. On the front end: Built on React.js using create-react-app, and Material UI as the UI framework, with some minor custom SCSS.
This project includes a docker-compose.yml file for easily getting a local environment up and running.
You do need to have the following environment variables available to the compose.yml: MAIL_USER, MAIL_PASS, and MAIL_HOST.
Then you can run docker compose up --build which will always rebuild the images first.
For example...
export MAIL_USER=yourmailusername
export MAIL_PASS=yourmailpassword
export MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
docker compose up --buildHead over to ProjectKanri today to sign up for an account and start tracking your next project's progress!.
Moojig: All aspects of user authentication on back and front end, including setting up Express middleware to track user sessions. Created the schema for the Mongoose database models, optimizing our API endpoints and adding in checks for admin/non-admin users on PUT and DELETE routes for projects/tasks. Created some pages on the front end: Welcome page, Profile page, Login page, and Comments component for the Task page.
Samantha: /api/projects endpoints, creating the Dashboard and Project pages, and creating the front end API interactions for the Project and Dashboard pages.
Pia: Creating the Task page, set up front end API interactions for tasks and setting up back end /api/tasks endpoints.
