Project

Your project this week is to build a web app that authenticates users and stores user-specific data in a PostgreSQL database.

User stories

Core

• As a user, I want to: submit information to your site for anyone to see

• As a user, I want to: come back to your site later and see what I posted is still there

• As a user, I want to: be the only person allowed to delete my stuff

Since this project is open-ended you'll need to write your own more specific user stories once you know what you want to build.

Acceptance Criteria

• Forms for users to sign up and log in

• A form for users to submit data only accessible to logged in users

• A page showing all the data

• A way for logged in users to delete their own data

• Semantic form elements with correctly associated labels

• A Postgres database hosted on Heroku

• Tests for server routes and database access

• Not process user input as SQL commands

• Hidden environment variables (i.e. not on GitHub)

Stretch criteria

• A user page that shows everything posted by a single user

• GitHub Actions CI setup to run your tests when you push

Example project ideas

• Founders & Coders book sharing system

• Food / coffee recommendations around Founders & Coders

• Founders & Coders events calendar
