College Project for Job Board 2.0


This repo was created originally to facilitate the completion of a college project which ultimately was executed on Google App Engine using a combination of Java and Groovy.

I have opened the source up as an example of what can be done on GAE in a very short space of time. The code should be considered a prototype and is not well engineered in a number of places, especially when nearing crunch-time.

You have permission to use this code freely for your own work but I would be grateful for some attribution.


This project will be hosted on http://www.careerjinn.com and tested via http://careerjinn.appspot.com/
