Outfitter

An outfit-picking application with Node.js/Sequelize/Express/MySQL/Animate.css

Description

Outfitter is a full stack outfit-picking application. The user may upload their articles of clothing and accessories to the database. Doing so will place the clothes in their virtual closet (and MySQL database), where they can pair articles together and save outfits.

The application is implemented using a Node.js and Express server on the back end, a MySQL database and Bootstrap with Animate.css on the front end.
