Coffee Tracker custom_app demo

This repository contains a small Coffee Tracker demo custom_app for the Open Data Ensemble (ODE) platform.
It shows how to go from a simple form-based app to a longitudinal data collection setup using Formulus. ...or as we call it: Lean to 'ode!

If you are new to ODE or custom_apps, start with the guides in documentation/:

• Guide v1 – Your first custom_app
  Learn what a custom_app is, how forms/ and app/ work together, and build the first version of Coffee Tracker.
  → See documentation/guide_v1.md

• Guide v2 – Longitudinal data collection
  Extend Coffee Tracker with follow‑up observations (shots pulled) and see how to link forms together for longitudinal data.
  → See documentation/guide_v2.md

Both guides are written to be copy‑paste friendly, with screenshots and complete code snippets.
