Digital Display Garden

Software Design S2017, Iteration 4, Team dorfner-v2

This repository is a fork from Iteration 3 , Team dorfner.

Introduction 🌷

This project's main goal is to develop a web application that provides visitors the ability to leave feedback for a local horticulture garden, the West Central Research Outreach Center (WCROC). The application includes an administration side that allows certain garden employees to manage the website, and a visitor side that allows visitors to view all the beds in the garden, view the plants in those beds, and leave feedback about these plants. It is designed in a way that would make it fairly easy to be used by other interested gardens.
