Building_blocks_mobile

Building Blocks Mobile App is the last project for CraftAcademy Cohort (Feb-April 2017). This is the app for housing community that will allow tenants to send help message request, book a facility using their mobile phone, be updated with the latest events/news in their community.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for deployment and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

In order to organize the features needed for our project and track our progress, we used different tools such as:

Pivotal Tracker Pivotal Tracker for Building blocks.
