Getting Started

Our website is deployed here.

If you want to run our site locally, follow these directions: Clone or download the .zip for the repo, navigate to the repo in command line, then run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

You will also need to declare a .env.local file in the top level directory that contains an Airtable API key and base ID.

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to view our website.

Specific Figma Designs:

• Student Application Flow

• Admin Application Flow

• Admin Prebootcamp Courses Flow

• Student Prebootcamp Courses Flow

Known Issues

• Logging out of an account sometimes won't reliably redirect the user to the homepage.
• Admin flow for viewing a student's course progress and submitting feedback isn't complete.
• Admin flow for an appealing student isn't complete.
• Functionality to send emails to applicants on application status changes is implemented but needs to be interfaced with the front end.
• UI consistency and fluidness can be improved. Homepage could use an overhaul.

Missing Features

• A component displaying meta data about Project Access webinars and events and the ability to sign up for them.
• Mentor matching capabilities (we even have the designs for this!)
• Admin flow for viewing an applicant's application process links to Airtable directly. Preferably this would be integrated with the site.
• More robust data validation on both front and back ends.
• Ability to add videos and hyperlinks to admin course builder.
• A unit testing schema.
