Aplicativo web utilizando framework open source para la gestión de actividades de la Fundación de Rescate Animal Paquito de la ciudad de Ambato

Abstract

The rescue and care of animals have become one of the most prominent sectors in terms of social work and public interest generation. For this reason, foundations committed to this noble cause promote responsible care of animals, placing significant emphasis on ensuring their well-being and fostering responsible practices in their care and adoption. In this context, however, one of the limitations faced by these foundations is the limited access to technological tools that would allow them to effectively manage information related to their activities. The lack of technological resources can hinder the coordination of rescues, adoptions, and volunteer work, as well as the detailed monitoring of the health and individual needs of the animals under their care. The present research project was conceived with the aim of developing a web application designed to assist the Paquito Animal Rescue Foundation. This web application enables the management of processes involved in rescue activities, adoption, volunteering, and the reception of monetary donations. In the development of the application, the decision was made to apply the XP methodology with the goal of adapting flexibly to changes that may arise in the application. For the development of the Frontend and user interface, Angular technology was employed, while the backend was built with the .NET Core framework, including a Rest API that contains the methods used by the application. MySQL was the chosen database to store the data.
