-# School-Management-System
-I want to create a School Management system to improve my GoLang skills to transition into an Intermediate GoLang developer.
+# School Management API [![GoLang](https://go.dev/)
 
-This is a full API to allow students to check their schedule, locker information and possibly grades in the future along with personal information.
-It allows for teachers to view their information and in the future manage classes, see students in a class, schedule, etc.
-It allows admins to update most information and view information. Those who run the school and help create the schedules or help students update information like names, classes, etc.
+The backend API for a school management system accessible by staff and students.
 
-Possible in the future when the API is complete I may start working on the front end to make it fully functional.

+<br>
+<br>
+
+## About The Project
+
+Originally started as a personal project to improve my overall Go knowledge and skills, driven by the complains
+of my current school management system for students to view their grades, credits, course selections etc. I took
+this on as a full project to work on for my Software Engineering class and is now a staple of my work. I plan to
+work on this till completion, starting with this API, and then the front end, learning new tricks and languages
+along the way.
+
+## Future Plans
+
+After the majority completion of vital api functionalities such as the ability to update information, create new
+information, generate information, delete information, authentication etc. I plan on creating a new repository 
+for a new frontier of this project. I plan on making the [School Management Website](https://github.com/SowinskiBraeden/school-management-website).
+
+This is most likely going to be written in another programming language or framework I am unfamiliar with. The 
+idea is to have a modern designed website capable of being used easily on any device or platform. I may use the
+[React.js](https://reactjs.org/) or [Vue.js](https://vuejs.org/) frameworks to build the front end design.
+<br>
+
+### Built With
+
+* [Golang](https://go.dev/)
+* [GoFiber](https://gofiber.io/)
+* [GoMongo Driver](https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/go/current/)
+
+## Getting Started
+
+The systems is easy to start and your local machine. Eliminating and long unforgiving configurations you may face in other software.
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Clone the repo
+```
+    $ git clone https://github.com/SowinskiBraeden/school-management-api.git
+    $ cd school-management-api
+```
+
+2. Rename `.env.example` to `.env` 
+3. Enter desired values into `.env`
+   ```
+    mongoURI='your mongo URI'
+    dbo=school
+    secret='your secret'
+    PORT='your desired port'
+    SYSTEM_EMAIL='your system email'
+    SYSTEM_PASSWORD='your system email password'
+   ```
+4. Run the sytem in your console
+```
+  go run main.go
+```
+5. Build and compile the system into an executable
+```
+  go build
+```
+<br>
+
+
+## Usage
+
+The usage for this API is in the name, school management, it's not an easy task in the areas I live near. Overcrowded schools are far too common and the need for a better school management system is there. The current systems issued by the government work but are poor and outdated.
