Activate Your Glutes

Project Description
Activate Your Glutes is a website for tracking fitness progress as you grind it out in the gym, developed using ASP.Net MVC, JQuery and Entity Framework.

NOTE: Versions 1.0.3.0 and revisions 45913 onwards of the source code require VS2010 and MVC2.

This codebase provides examples of using:

• ASP.Net MVC (http://aspnet.codeplex.com/)
• JQuery (http://jquery.com/)
• Entity Framework
• Unity (http://unity.codeplex.com/)
• Rhino Mocks (http://www.ayende.com/projects/rhino-mocks.aspx)
• AutoMapper (http://automapper.codeplex.com/)
• VisiFire Charts (http://www.visifire.com/)
• Log4Net (http://logging.apache.org/log4net/)

It brings these together in a way that illustrates partially protecting a site and controller using SSL (login and registration), using Unity as a container to build controllers and more, custom model binders, and displaying a grid of data with jqGrid (http://www.trirand.com/blog/).

It is functional and an example of it running live can be found at http://www.activateyourglutes.com/. Work is ongoing both on new features and on code quality and I hope, in time, that the project becomes a good example of how to write a real world MVC application.

I've arranged planned improvements into a roadmap.
