64. PROBLEMS HOME has outgrown the current system Current system was not designed for case management. Some fields and logic is not longer necessary, and hindering case workers. Case workers waste time working around the system, which is time that can be spent helping workers. Current system is hard coded and does not suit the changing landscape of HOME’s needs. Poor collection and presentation of data. 1 2 3
65. OBJECTIVES Streamline the workflow for logging cases Re-design the database, for improved collection of data. This will pave the way for building reporting and data visualisations. Revamp information architecture, and streamline case management to suit the team’s workflow. The system should be extensible and easily adaptable by the admins to make it future-proof. 1 2 3
66. STRETCH GOAL Bot integration with Slack chat system Facilitate communication between volunteers and case workers 1 Use of custom-built commands to pull data from the app into slack conversation 2
67. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN Build and deploy a web application from scratch We will be building the web application using the Ruby on Rails framework, which is popular amongst startups, and some larger enterprises. The application and database will be hosted on Heroku, which provides tools for optimising an application in production. How to implement features such as authentication, email delivery, building workflows, Slack integration, etc.
68. HOW WE WORK Learn best practices in software development Learn to use tools like GitHub and Circle CI to as part of a Continuous Integration and Deployment process. 1 Learn to write automated tests, and set up exception handling tools like AppSignal to track errors in the app. 2
