Inspiration
Some of my family members suffer from aesthetic condition and all I can say is that their self-confidence has dropped since being diagnosed. With no free support from the NHS put in place, the society has made it our mission to give them support and fund their needs, working in partnership with other charities in order to give them what they need to boost their self-esteem.
What it does
The web application's main purpose is to provide guidance from professionals in the format of Q&A sessions and posts. The businesses can also promote the products and services they are offering.
How we built it
For the front-end development I have used a combination of JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3 to develop the interface, and add some responsive features. For the back-end development I have implemented a SQLite database using the flask-admin extension.
Challenges we ran into
The use of sessions for the log in systems, as well as the use of sessions for the posts filtering option, as I have some limited experience in working with AJAX.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Basic functionality of the website works as desired - the registration and log in forms.
What we learned
I have strengthened my knowledge of JavaScript and AJAX.
What's next for 'Éstime'
- Booking system linked to the calendar so that we can keep track and monitor with what kind of content the users want to engage with.
- For the business accounts we could create an insights page, such that the professional account holders can view statistics of their posts, who their target audience is, in order to learn more about trends.
