Made use of Android studio to build the java and run the app in the android emulator. PHP was used to make the API endpoints to emable database access from the application. We used mySQL to setup the database.
The Java source code for Woofer can be found in the app/src/main/java/com/example/woofer directory. Feel free to explore and contribute to the project!
Unfortunately the app uses an API that was run on the Wits lamp server which has been wipe already for the new students
Happy Woofering!
