This app was built as a way to record board game meetup attendance and gaming action. Users are able to create meetups with players and further assign these players to game events representing a single instance of a game being played.
Meetups are the broadest level of structure in the app. They represent the general set of time at which games might have been played. Meetups have a name, a location, and a date, for example: "New Year's Party" at "Jenna's house" on "1-1-2015". Furthermore, you can add players to meetups to note in general who was in attendance.
Events represent a single instance of a game being played at a meetup, for example, a playing of Pandemic. If a game is played multiple times at the meetup, each of these will be different events. Players from the meetup can be assigned as players in a particular game event, and there is opportunity to fill out other fields like a game rating and a description of the outcome of the game.
Players are the people! They can be added to meetups and subsequently to events. Players cannot be added to a game event if they are not first added to the meetup containing that event.
Games represent board games. At least for now, each game object represents an abstract instance of that game, not a particular copy that belongs to a particular player. Therefore, there should be only one listing of a particular game in the Game model.
Meetups, Events, Players, and Games are all models in the application, and there is CRUD functionality for each of them.
