EnduraNet is the database front-end which tracks pertinent information for the Endurance Coalition. At present, its primary function is certification tracking. It records what certifications are available, their prerequisite, who made them, along with all members who are certified on a given certification, when a particular member's certification expires (if applicable), and so on.
History
EnduraNet was created by Sirdog in late April of 2025 as a project to see if he could work with databases and display the information via a front-end website. For certification tracking, which was the original intended goal, when practical, using a database is preferable for many reasons instead of manual documentation.
The project eventually resulted in a minimum viable product with version 0.1.0 releasing on April 29th, 2025. Soon after, version controlling was introduced with GitHub, and SierraKomodo began to contribute to it's codebase, bringing considerable programming knowledge which Sirdog lacked.

Structure
EnduraNet is stored on a single MariaDB database located on the Endurance Coalition server inside a Docker image. The front end uses Bootstrap for it's visual CSS, Datatables for data presentation, and Select2 for it's searchable dropdowns. It is primarily coded in PHP, with HTML and CSS used for styling.
