Boy Scout Ranking Guide

The Project

This is a mobile app that is supposed to help scouts in the Boy Scouts of America to rank up to First Class as fast as possible through giving easy and straightforward answers for requirements (if applicable. Some requirements can heavily vary in answers). Though it does provide support for Star scouts and up, it won't be as significant as no rank to First Class. This app features a database which can update all the requirements, as well as the answers to requirements within the app without having to update the app every time. In addition to that, I will be actively making the app more presentable and aesthetically pleasing as time goes on and as I update the app. Answers to requirements can be crowdsourced, though they don't have to. I will be adding some answers myself.

Team Comments

I have noticed that a lot of scouts have trouble ranking up in BSA, or have little motivation to do so because it may get a bit hard. I want to make a quick and easy way to rank up so they can focus on getting Eagle rank as well as earning merit badges.

User interface, and a database system utilizing Google Sheets and having it update information live in the app.

Well, this project will be kept updated. So because of this, I will be actively improving how this app looks, as well as adding all the answers to requirements either through crowdsourcing or myself.
