LibreFoodPantry and Theas Pantry

Hello everyone! This semester, I will be starting my blog off talking about two food pantries: Libre Food Pantry and Thea's Pantry. Libre Food Pantry is an open source project that computer science students and any one else who is interested can contribute to. What I found interesting while browsing the Libre Food Pantry website was their mission. It is really great that the computer science community has come up with a way to have computer science majors practice developing projects that may be useful for a good cause, the good cause here being supporting food pantries with free software. This way, the CS majors can feel that they are both learning through developing the software and supporting a good cause at the same time. The fact that this is open source is also great news to me because I am a big supporter for things being open source. After looking and reading through the Thea's pantry documentation page, I found the Architecture page particularity useful because it shows the inner components of Thea's pantry. The plantUML diagrams show how these inner components work together in the software. The user stories were also interesting to look through since it gives developers insight on how the website is supposed to be used, and they can use that information to improve certain areas of the software.
