Launch

Phase Four Project for Flatiron School's Software Engineering Bootcamp Program. Launch is a project management tool that allows users to:

• create new Projects
• build a team
• create & assign tasks to team members
• set deadlines for tasks
• monitor progress via a dashboard overview
• communicate with other users via a built-in chat system
• browse projects made by other users

Once all tasks have been completed, then all that's left to do is to LAUNCH IT! Happy Collaborating =)

Requirements

Ruby

Installation

Clone this repository into your developer environment. Change directory so that you are in the '/backend' directory, then install the required Ruby Gems using the following command:

bundle install

Run the migration files to build the database:

rails db:migrate

Optional: If you would like to populate the database with randomly generated information, you can run the seed file:

rails db:seed

Usage

This application uses Ruby on Rails to host a local API. Navigate to the '/backend' directory, then run the following command:

rails s

With the server running, navigate to the '/frontend' directory and open 'index.html' in your favorite web browser (Google Chrom recommended).
