This is a blind test game that allows you to test your knowledge of vintage soul songs.

This website is obviously for people who like old soul songs, otherwise it may be hard to play. The typical user would be a music lover who wants to try or prove his knowledge, or someone who likes this kind of music and wants to discover some songs.

The mockups can be found here

• Use the API from spotify to create the songs data (get_songs.py)
• Record users and their scores
• The game: show a random song, take guesses, calculate the points, keep track of the result
• The leaderboard: show the top ten players

• Accept answers that are 80% correct
• Contact form: send me an email

• Flask
  • I use Flask to handle page routing and other backend functions
• SQL Alchemy and SQLite
  • I use SQL Alchemy and SQLite for the database and db queries
  • Note: the website is deployed on heroku with a SQLite database. SQLite databases are currently not supported by Heroku meaning that the data is deleted after a few hours.
• Bootstrap 4
  • I use Bootstrap to give the project a simple, responsive layout
• Spotipy
  • I use Spotipy to get the data from Spotify.

• The functions related to the database are tested in database_test.py
• The other python functions are tested in tests.py
• Documentation for the user testing can be found there : User Tests
