February 13th - Back-end Development Updates

Back end Development was started by Eric and Michael. With the database setup we began to develop the back end of the site to communicate with the database that we had already setup. This was done in Flask using the Sql Alchemy framework and restful Framework. This allowed us to easily connect to our sqlLite database and begin testing on our database structure and design. We have just initially created endpoints for requests to be sent to delete Refrigerators and create them. We also added the endpoints to get information about the added refrigerators. The development is still in a very early phase and may be subject to change.

This Milestone is very important for our team it helped Eric and Michael get better acquainted with a practical use of Flask and its popular Frameworks. It also allowed us to test the structure of our database. This will be a stepping stone for future development on both the back end and further front end development.
