Architecture

This web application utilises server-side rendering with Flask. Each web page is a separate route in the Flask application and each route has its own html file. The app is also linked with a database using WTForms and SQLAlchemy, which stores login and board information.

Branches

1. main: self-explanatory, the branch where the live working product is stored
2. dev: will be where all experimental changes will be initially merged into and validated. Personal feature branches may spawn off but will be merged into here before any other branch.

Running the Application

Initial setup

1. Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Create migration repository: flask db init
3. Generate a migration: flask db migrate

Making changes to the database schema

If you make any changes to the database schema, generate a new migration and upgrade the database by repeating steps 3 and 4 above.
