Description

A web and mobile application for users to register medical data to a specific location.

Features

• A user signs in.
• The user selects the type of form they wish to submit, and fills it in.
• A location is saved with the form, which is either the user's location or a manually inputted latitude and longitude.
• A map shows every form registered in the selected category (form type, e.g "Disease outbreak" or "Traffic accident").

Prosses and learing

Because not all the group members have the same courses this semester, the tasks and time working on the project are dividing according to other courses, one member may need to work on another course for a while, while the others work on the project, same goes with different exams, but everybody is always kept up to speed via meetings and group chats. We want every member to have a full understanding of the solution, but we have specific task that one person is responsible for. Even if one person does not just work within that specific task we have divided up the main responsibility accordingly:

Anders Emil Rønning: Main responsibility for JS and working towards the APIs
Jon Nilsson: Design and interface
Erling Fjelstad: Mobile application

None of the members have prior experience working with JavaScript, so it’s a “learn by doing” principle.
Resources we use to learn:
- Code Academy
- JavaScript: The Good Parts
- Lecture notes
- And other guides and tutorials on the Internet

Because of the lack of experience with JavaScript we have had to go back and refactor the code quite a bit when we have learned more and come up with a better solution for a given problem.

Languages ​​and frameworks

- Html
- CSS
- JavaScript
- JQuery
- KnockoutJS
- Cordova/PhoneGap
