Final Project

Due: 11:00pm, Thursday May 6, 2021

Max grace days: 0

Description

The goal of this project is to develop a basic data driven web application. The theme of your project is up to you, but it must meet the following criteria:

• The application data must be stored in a Sqlite database.

• The PDO library must be used to access the database using prepared statements when processing user defined input.

• The interface to the application data must be via a REST API using JSON as the data exchange format.

• A user must be able to manipulate data in some fashion. (It does not necessarily need to use all CRUD operations depending on the theme of the application.)

• The application view must be updated via DOM manipulation and HTTP requests to the REST API.

• The web application must be sufficiently complex. (This criteria is somewhat subjective; if you think your idea for the web application is too simplistic, then ask me.)

• The HTML shell document must be named index.html.

• The JavaScript implementation must be in its own file(s). That is, there must not be and <script> elements in the HTML shell.

For this project, you can earn up to a 5% bonus towards your final course grade by exceeding the basic criteria listed above. The bonus points will be awarded at my discretion depending on the quality of the enhancements. If you choose to implement additional features, add a file named README.txt to your submission containing the details of the additional features.

Turning in the Assignment

For this assignment, you must turn in a zip file containing all files necessary to run your application. Submit the zip file to the appropriate folder on D2L.
