**Mascot-app **Server

MascotApp is a web-application that gathers information on animals in need of a home from different organizations, in one place. The app seeks to alleviate the plight of abandoned pets in Spain documented by different organisations by finding them both temporary and permanent lodging. This repository hosts the server-side files for the application. The web-application's frontend is located in this repository.
