UPDATE: Improved Documents, Initial SW Release, and Demo Video

Overview

Hi all! In light of recent events, the group returned to previous documents such as the project proposal and system requirements document to improve and update them. This post also serves as a re-launch of the initial software release.

Software Release

The current implementation of the UPSE SAAS is functional, however, starting a local development instance (LDI) proved to be difficult as, through collaboration with the client and Maroon Studios, shortcomings of the technical documentation were brought to light. After several days of collaboration, the additional settings were configured leading to an operational LDI. Note that some functions and fields are empty/unresponsive as further configuration/troubleshooting with Maroon Studies is still underway.

To see the LDI in action check out the demo video attached below!
