+# DaysLeft
+
+A shift tracker for rural work carried out by backpackers.
+
+# Overview
+
+Working holider makers in australia are given the option to carry out 3 months of rural work in exchange for a second year working holiday visa. The problem with working holiday makers carrying out rural work many are subjected to exploitation and abude. 
+Here is an article in The Guardian outlining the horrible conditions
+
+This is part of the problem within rural work, but one of many issues is exploitation on pay. I created this application to tackle the problem.
+With days left a backpacker can track the work they have done and dispute exploitation when its "their word against mine".
+
+# Features
+
+## Simple sign up
+All you need is an email address and password (Social media sign up coming soon)
+
+## Find employer
+Easily find the employer you are working for by their ABN (Australian business number) or name. This ensures you are working for a legal entity.
+
+## Simple shift logging
+Once you have submitted a shift it is simple to repeat. If you are working for an agency it is simple to log various employers.
+
+## Visa data compilation
+Compiling data for your second year visa application is long and tedious - with days left at the click of a button you can have your data needed for download.
+
+## Piece rate accepted
+Many other working day trackers only work for hourly paid shifts. Days left incorporates the tracking of piece rate (eg. $6.00 per kg or $2.00 per bucket) shifts which you can log and track.
+
+## Home screen metric
+Includes the progress so far through your 88 days. Piece rate totals, hourly paid totals and accumulated totals.
