Harmful Nova Scotia Plants project
Mobile and web applications for identification of harmful and poisonous plants
Harmful Nova Scotia Plants provides a listing of harmful and poisonous plants in the province. Users are able to browse by alphabetical listing, filter by where found, full text search (mobile apps) and search by name (web app), and view details and photographs of plants. There is also a glossary of terms used.

Ember.js, ElmWhat We Did
Because we were interested in seeing such an app exist, we developed the Useful Nova Scotia Plants application with Marian Munro, botany curator of the Nova Scotia Museum. This time around Marian asked us if we’d like to do it again this time for harmful plants. We took the bones of our Useful Plants Ember application, and modified it to suit a slightly different content format based around where the plants are found – home, garden, or wild. For fun and learning, we also developed an Elm application for desktop browsers.
