This repository is for the Pantry-for-Good application designed by Open Source for Good Contributors at freeCodeCamp. If you'd like to contribute, the contributing guide explains the git workflow and the developers guide gives an overview of how the app works.

The open issues are a good place to start, or you can try the app and add your own issues. If you get stuck or need help with something, feel free to leave a comment.

Some issues are quite large, don't feel like you have to finish them, it's ok. Little bits help too!

There's a demo app hosted at https://pantry-for-good.herokuapp.com, though it might be a bit behind the current version.

Installation

The app is designed to be installed locally (mac, linux or windows) or on Heroku.
