Abolitionist library

This website website was created for a group to help them organise a floating library. Eventually, users can register books that they have and would like to offer to others to borrow, and find books to borrow themselves.

Hosted on Heroku.

Quick Start

To get this project up and running locally on your computer:

1. Set up the Python development environment. We recommend using a Python virtual environment.
2. Assuming you have Python setup, run the following commands (if you're on Windows you may use py or py -3 instead of python to start Python):

   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   python3 manage.py makemigrations
   python3 manage.py migrate
   python3 manage.py collectstatic
   python3 manage.py test # Run the standard tests. These should all pass.
   python3 manage.py createsuperuser # Create a superuser
   python3 manage.py runserver
   

3. Open a browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ to open the admin site
4. Create a few test objects of each type.
5. Open tab to http://127.0.0.1:8000 to see the main site, with your new objects.
