PetMe is an all-in-one platform that allows animals to be adopted, donated to pet lovers, and provides emergency medical care to stray animals in need. Star this repo⭐

This README provides an overview of the project's backend outlines guidelines for ensuring adherence to the main project's structure.

Introduction

We decided to embark on the journey of building the backend infrastructure for PetMe! Leveraging the power of NodeJS, Express, and Prisma technologies, we are confident in create a robust and efficient architecture that will provide a consistent API.

Technologies

NodeJS

• NodeJS forms the backbone of our backend development. Its asynchronous and event-driven architecture provides the ideal foundation for handling the dynamic and real-time nature of our platform's operations.

Express

• Express.js, a fast and minimalistic web application framework for NodeJS, plays a pivotal role in shaping our API endpoints. Its simplicity and flexibility allow us to craft endpoints with ease, catering to the diverse needs of our users.

Prisma

• Prisma adds a layer of sophistication to our backend. This powerful tool assists in database management and provides a type-safe query builder, ensuring our interactions with the database are both secure and efficient.

Project Structure

We maintain a clear and organized project structure to enhance collaboration and maintainability. Each component of the backend is thoughtfully placed to ensure a logical flow and easy navigation for contributors.

Contribution Guidelines

We welcome contributions from the open-source community to help us achieve our mission of better animal welfare through technology. To ensure a harmonious collaboration, we have established some guidelines:

• Issues: Before you begin working on a particular aspect, check the issues section to see if it's already being addressed or if there's a related discussion.

• Branching: For each new feature or bug fix, create a new branch. This keeps the main codebase clean and facilitates smoother integration.

• Code Style: Maintain a consistent code style by following the guidelines outlined in the repository.

• Pull Requests: When submitting a pull request, provide a comprehensive description of the changes you've made. This helps reviewers understand your work better.

• Collaboration: Be respectful of other contributors' opinions and work. Healthy discussions enrich the project.
