Inspiration
The inspiration for this project was most of our group had worked at companies with really terrible systems for scheduling and notifying people when they need to work, so we sought to try and improve that
What it does
What it does is keep track of all of your employees and make it easy to let them know things like what days they are scheduled to work
How we built it
We built it using react as our foundation and we built many things on top of it using express as our back end to communicate with MongoDB and to manage nodemailer which sends out our emails
Challenges we ran into
We ran into a number of challenges but especially with managing our database and with setting up our emailing system
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're really proud of our tech stack and we're proud of the fact that our group went into this without a ton of react experience or database experience
What we learned
We learned a lot about react very quickly, as well as a lot about MongoDB and node.js
What's next for Work Weaver
We really enjoyed working on this project and we may keep working on it as a hobby project and to work more in web development
