This is an open-source project specifically designed for smaller animal rescues, to keep track of the medical, behavioral, and other needs of their residents.
There is software available for large-scale animal sanctuaries and shelters. Prior to this effort, nothing had existed for the "little guy". As a veterinarian who quit clinical practice, animals are near and dear to my heart, and a close friend of mine founded Hope Haven Farm Sanctuary, a home for abandoned or abused farm animals. However, she had no easy way to communicate to her volunteers what each animal needed.
Code for the API can be found in app.py.
This site is deployed at Sanctuary Secretary, if you'd like to take a look, and it's a work-in-progress.
If you have suggestions or questions, I can be reached at [email protected] or @EventsDoctor.
I used Bonnie Eisenman's React-Flask tutorial to initially set up the files for this project. If you are looking to set up a React application using a backend Flask API, Babel, and Webpack, I highly recommend it! She goes into setting up a virtual environment, installing Webpack, and running both 'webpack --watch' and 'python app.py'.
