This week, I worked on getting everything set up with EC2. Specifically, I worked on hosting the web app on EC2, configuring Apache with the Django web app, and setting up MySQL. I also worked on the web app itself a bit more in terms of visuals.
Next week, I will work on taking the data from the node MCU (since Nat was able to get POST requests to send data working) and using that for the web app instead of mock data. Additionally, I might consider looking into more secure ways to verify that the data is coming from the nodeMCU, as that was one of the feedback we got from the design report (the `key` in our JSON can be replicated).
I believe we are on schedule, at least for the software stack. The web app is successfully hosted and can be visited, and this week + next week were designated for receiving data from the nodeMCU and storing that for the web app.
