Virtual Pets

*Check it out here! *Due to deployment issues, PostgreSQL is not available, and I'm currently looking into a workaround. Updated functional app link coming soon!

Data Model

Milestones

Getting user Auth to work

Remove toy associations since the project was based off lab/homework

Playground model/view/templates. Decided to not go full CRUD

Added concept of wild pets, pets that have no owners. Figured out how to display them for non*logged in users

Got forms working for user edit and pet creation/edits

Materialize stripped out, replaced with Bootstrap

Created home/about pages

Fixed not letting pets be part of multiple playgrounds, their owner must remove them from a playrgound before placing them in another.

Added full CRUD for User.

Added ability to let wild pets become adopted

Delegation

We let everyone pick what they wanted to work on so Eddie ended up tackling most of the styling and Uyen and Steven focused mostly on backend parts of the project. There was some overlap and paired programming so everyone got to see and work on both frond and back end
