Great places are chosen by great chowists

Hi there 👋

I work as a full-time software engineer.

I use GitHub as a platform to empower developers and for experimenting with the latest tech.

In my spare time:

• 💻 I work on open-source projects
• 📷 I shoot photos for family and friends
• 🥁 I play the drums for fun

chowist's Issues

Add support for Google Maps integration

Before in ciscochef days, the app would have an interactive map with a listing of the places. It was initialized by Google Maps v3 API. Ever since the port over to chowist, that experience has been lost. It would be nice to bring it back again.

Add categories for each restaurant

This application used to have category data associated with each restaurant:

214da14#diff-d57d2bc50879b963bf0213924f7d18c4

It would be nice to bring it back again.

Add more restaurants to the test data

Currently we have 23 restaurants in the Bay Area - all of which I enjoy. But it would be nice to add additional places to bring life to the application.

Make Google Maps more responsive

When a client shrinks the page to mobile size, the map kicks the view out to the other side so that one needs to scroll back in the other direction to see the previous content. Can work on maintaining map view even after scaling the screen.

Add support for restaurant reviews

The Rating model is not being used for much other than display when viewing the detail view for restaurants. The Rating model should have the following views associated to it:

• Detail view for individual ratings
• Update view for individual ratings
• Create view for new ratings

And have object permissions enabled for ratings (i.e. only publishers can edit their own ratings).

Add a page to choose random restaurant

Currently there is a list of restaurants. But if someone is undecided, they would like to choose a restaurant at random. Though they might have preferences, so providing support for filters would be appreciated.

Cannot edit profile

Edit profile button exists but was not correctly supported. Specifically, the view tried to edit Profile and User but it only enabled changes to Profile attributes. Moreover, it allowed a website user to configure the Profile to another User instance.

This needs to be fixed to modify both model attributes. And the Profile and User should be closely tied such that you can disassociate Profile from its User.
