An app that helps users create itineraries for their vacations.
Here at Sockaputa Inc we attribute our success to us always taking a step back and asking ourselves can we make our app scalable. With this motto in mind, the concept of Tripply was born. We know planning a vacation can be stressfull. Not anymore. Tripply is designed to help you create a detailed itinerary for your upcoming vacation. To begin a user clicks on "Sign Up" to create an account. Once signed in a user will be directed to thier profile page. They can then create a trip, by clicking "Plan Trip". After filling out the necessary trip details, you will be directed to the trip page, where you can then create new activities for your trip. You are given the option of either creating your own activity, or to use a Yelp API to suggest possible activities in your area. You can also view the location of a specific activity with the Google Maps API. If you would like to see the forecast for the location you are traveling to, simply click on the "show forecast" button. Both your trips and activities will be organized by date and time. Once you have filled out your itinerary you are on your way to a productive,exciting, well earned vacation.

Working with API's was a challenge
-
Creating, editing and deleting models through AJAX was more difficult than we thought
-
- Dealing with github. The process of making sure no one elses code conflicted with another team members was not easy
-
A registered user should be able to search other APIs (in addition to Yelp), to populate activities, i.e. TripAdvisor, Expedia
-
A registered user should be able to decide whether or not they want their trip to be public
-
A user can rate their experience of the activities they do (1-5 stars)
-
A user can copy another users trip/activity to their itinerary
-
A user can upload pictures to show how lit their trip was

Your team must:
- Come up with an idea as a team, and confirm the idea with an instructor to make sure it's challenging enough as well as within the scope of the allowed time.
- Document your app's RESTful API.
- Craft thoughtful user stories together, as a team, and manage and distribute those user stories to team members based on skills and interests using Trello.
- Manage team contributions and collaboration using Git, GitHub and a standard team work-flow.
- Present the app at the end of the sprint as a team.
- Perform a team-wide retro and at least one code-review after the completion of the sprint.
Your app must:
- Use MongoDB & Express to CRUD your data.
- Produce a RESTful API that exposes at least one model.
- Consume its own API using AJAX if there's a single page application component to it.
- Authenticate users using at least one OAuth provider.
- Restrict access to the Creation, Updating & Deletion of resource(s) using an authorization middleware function.
- Be deployed online using Heroku.
