JobTrack

The JobTrack application is intended as a learning platform for the integration of FuelPHP, a PHP backend, and the Backbone.js Javascript framework.

My goal with the project is not to neccesarily make a fully-functioning application, but rather to learn about the challenges associated with integration a RESTful API backend into Backbone.

The functionality of the system includes:

• Being able to store position information
• Storing Applicant information
• Storing Position information
• Tagging on both Positions and Applicants
• Linking Positons and Applicants by tags
• Viewing lists of the most recent Applicants and Positions added

Technologies used:

• Backbone.js
• Require.js
• jQuery
• Underscore.js
• Bootstrap-dropdown (Twitter Bootstrap plugin)
• FuelPHP
• MySQL

Setup:

1. Unpack the files into your document root
2. Create a database to use and run the app/config/init.sql to create the tables
3. Load the app!

Default Database settings:

user: jobtrack

pwd: jt42

db name: jobtrack

(this information can be changed in app/config/db.php)
