Forum Brands Full Stack Application Exercise

Hi! We are super excited to see what you are able to create

Duration: We don't expect you to take more than 2~4h to finish the exercise.

The Exercise

You are in the forefront of creating a new internal dashboard for an amazing Shelter.

This particular shelter only allows the intake of 2 types of animals Cats and Dogs both of which can always be adopted at any stage.

As an Animal Care specialist I would love to be able to manage different aspects in this application:

• Identify the animal in an easy and intuitive way
• Understand how long the animal has been in the shelter
• Understand who has adopted our animals
• Be able to change information about the Cat or Dog easily.

Finally, you overheard the Shelter Manager mentioning that soon there is going to be a new shelter in a new location. Not sure what this means now, but probably good to know.

What are we looking for

The following criteria will be used to evaluate your solution:

• ER diagram
• The application starts and doesn't have any visible errors
• Showcase your skills to us!

Important to know

We are not expecting you to create any database or any sql code, though we would like to see how you are thinking about the database structure. It can also be a simple image or a readable hand drawing. All the data of the endpoints (Graphql or REST) can be hardcoded as a JSON object return.
