DinoPark

A web application for a dinosaur park, where users can view information about the park and dinosaurs, reserve viewing for feeding times and see the park map.

Progress 10.10

Overview: All critical features have been implemented. The app currently does not have graphics or a good user interface. Search/browse can be accessed at /search. The following features are implemented and working:

• Admin account login
• Reserving feeding times
• Searching for dinosaurs (by name)
• Searching for feeding times (by date)
• Browsing dinosaurs & feeding times today
• Admins can edit/remove/add feeding times

Progress 24.10 final turn in

Overview: All planned features have been implemented and the app has basic graphics. Some notes about the code and app itself:

• The map_hover() function in scripts.js could be improved. For some reason .getElementById did not work here.
• All dinosaurs share the same image, which could be improved. This photo is also not saved in the db. The correct version would have an image in dinosaurs db table.
• Search & browse content could be improved by adding links to reserving feeding times.
• In the Heroku version of the app, the homepage map seems a bit slow sometimes.
• The homepage map could have some text explaining the diferent areas.
