wfh-ninja

WFH-ninja was originally intended to be a "work from home" excuse generator, allowing the community to vote on the most effective excuses. This repo is built as a generic single page app that displays one quote at a time, with features to "upvote" and "downvote" quotes. User submitted quotes require approval by a registered admin via an admin panel.

Live Demo: http://wfh.ninja/

• Get all approved/ unapproved quotes
• Approve/ reject single quotes via admin panel
• Admin panel (/admin) for admin user registration, login, logout and approving/ rejecting of quotes
