== History ==

EnduraNet was created by Sirdog in late April of 2025 as a project to see if he could learn how to take information in a database and present it on a public facing web page. The original goal of EnduraNet was to track certifications. Sirdog desired using a database for this so that EDC could leverage all of the benefits which come with using a database; automatic determination of expiry, highly-customizable querying of information, and so on.[[File:Enduranet-mvp.png|thumb|425x425px|Screenshot of EnduraNet v0.1.0.]]

A [[wikipedia:Minimum viable product|minimum viable product]] released on April 29. Soon after the application became [[wikipedia:Version control|version controlled]] on a private GitHub repository.

On July 1 Discord [[wikipedia:Single sign-on|single sign-on]], [[wikipedia:Create, read, update and delete|CRUD]] operations, and Discord account based permissions were implemented. This introduced the ability for information such as members, certifications, and certification history to be changed with front-facing forms rather than manually editing the database. An administrative panel was also introduced which gave ~~{{Abbr|~~EDC~~|Endurance Coalition}}~~ leadership the means to selectively decide which members could perform what operations.

On August 27 the project was suspended by Sirdog due to a lack of rekindling interest in Arma ~~III~~ within the community despite on-going development. The decision to suspend the application's development was more or less finalized after Sirdog received verbal confirmation from Fleff on August 26 that the [[Arma 3 metagame|Arma metagame]] was unlikely to resume implementation in the near future. The project may or may not return based on future developments.

== Logo ==

A logo specific to EnduraNet was made by Sirdog to make it visually distinct from other Endurance Coalition services (such as this wiki). Inspired by the [[:File:EDCLogo.png|official community logo]], the notable differences are that the database icon replaces the NATO star, the background color was changed to <code>#200d3b</code> (dark purple) from the original's <code>#020b41</code> (dark blue), and the golden rope was flipped to go counter-clockwise.

The logo was created in [[wikipedia:GIMP|GIMP]] with all assets, aside from ones taken from the EDC logo, originating [[wikipedia:Public domain|public domain]] images on [[commons:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]].
