Midpoint!

  February 11th, 2022

Well we got to the midpoint and are getting the site into some semblance of shape.

We got the whole url structure all identified for all the pages this last week and now its starting to really shape up for the team and I think everyone is finally on the same page on the structure/layout of the site.

We are identifying the URL using a rest methodology where:

www.farmwork.us/farmprofile/”Some unique farm code” gives you all the routes associated with that farm

www.farmwork.us/farmprofile/”Some unique farm code”/jobs/”Some unique job code” gives you all the routes associated with that job on that specific farm.

Getting that whole structure penciled out and “how” we were going to identify and use those keys in our database has been a real A-ha moment for the team.

Our next challenge will be to start to make everything look a little prettier. We are all a team of mostly “backend focused” CS students and none of us seem to really be all that into design or CSS. So. It will be interesting how nice we can end up making the site. I am figuring if no one steps up, we might have to do a little bootstrap mining for “prebuilt forms” and see what we can produce.

Looking forward to a fully functional site!
