Set up Backend Infrastructure

[Aveline-art]

Overview

As a developer we need to have a backend to store our app critical data. For this issue we will set up the backend infrastructure.

Action Items

• In accordance to Django and DRF best practices, create our backend architecture
  • As part of this, also incorporate swagger as part of our backend UI
• Edit wiki to add information on our architecture
• This issue can be done concurrently with Create Backend Schema in DRF #220 , which is dependent on this issue

Note: proper backend infrastructure must support the following:

• type casting and type checking of incoming data
• proper argument validation before model creation
• check for required and optional data
• proper model relationship handling (one 2 many, many 2 many...)
• login/other verification for user endpoints to ensure data safety

Making good progress on this. I still need to do two things:

• Add user verification for the API
• Edit the wiki
