The goal of this API is to help solve some issues that many fitness enthusiasts face. Our list of features are expanding, but for now, we can help users search for exercises through our Exercise database. This API also serves the Activity Scoreboard for the Discord bot I am working on (JarvisBot) and I plan to make that feature more robust so it can be accessible to many more users.
This project uses the Flask framework and is deployed in a Docker container that is hosted on AWS Lightsail. The Database layer is hosted on AWS as well. Deployment to Lightsail is done locally, most of it automated with a bash script.
For a more in depth explanation for each of the endpoints, please visit the Wiki It's being worked on still, so please bear with me!
