Hair Salon

Epicodus C# Week 4 Hair Salon Project, 7.20.2018

By Protatodev (Thad Donaghue)

Description

This website was written using C# .Net Core. The website demonstrates a simple Hair Salon admin portal. The employee can manage stylists and clients and can manipulate, add and delete each as necessary. This version builds on the previous version by adding many to many relationships and adding a 'specialty' model for stylists. All records are saved on a database using MySQL allowing for simple access.
