Kayla’s Status Report for 11/9

This week I implemented web scraping for a different recipe website, America’s Test Kitchen. We will be scraping recipes from America’s Test Kitchen instead of Allrecipes because the recipe urls for America’s Test Kitchen are all the same except each recipe has a unique number on the end of the url, which allows for automated scraping of every recipe available on the website, whereas this is not possible with Allrecipes. This is a bit behind what I wanted to have, but tomorrow our team will meet to work on integration together, and during the week I will work on storing and retrieving data from the database. I also hope to update the web app UI to use America’s Test Kitchen recipes and implement the search feature. Code will be the deliverable.
