Bookishy
Khalid Faiz
A Book Club Platform
App Description
Bookishy is supposed to be a platform for readers, where they can add thier books, track thier progress, and add some notes in each book they add.
Also, users can view public books, which are added for the admin user page to moderate them, when ever 2 or more users have the same book. After approval, they become public books, which authenticated users can comment on, and comment on other peoples comments.
A user is able to apply full CRUD operations on anything related to them, whether it is a book, a comment or thier accout itself.
Database
The app will use a SQLAlchemy (sqlite as a starter db) database, with six tables.
Edit: I'll use google book api, so things are easier.

id: Automatically generated.name: Unique string field.email: Unique valid email address (not necessairly working, but with a valid format).password: Hashed then stored.book
