[Farhad33]

On going project

This is an ongoing project, and you'll work on top of the existing project that other learners have created.

Description

As a business owner, I want a system that allows me to add all of my employees and set their availability and available blocks of time.

• Working with a backend (code running on a server)
• Working with a sql database
• Rendering a complex HTML view (the calendar)
• Incorporating interactive elements around a calendar view

@Farhad33 this is a solid looking goal. My only suggestion right now would be to link to any example applications that are similar to what you have here.

For instance, you could point people to Calendly, which has similar functionality.

Consider giving reviewers more information to figure out what quality looks like. Is it about test coverage? Is it about not using frameworks? Is it about the UI look and feel?

For example, you can create a quality rubric like this: UI/UX: 100pts Test Coverage: 100pts Good file organization: 50pts Good variable and function names: 50pts Code is object oriented: 75pts No bootstrap or other UI framework: 100pts
