Empath is a desktop program optimized for macOS for keeping track of a Software Engineer's job applications. We make no guarantees of job placement, simply to help you on yur Employment Pathway at a startup or maybe even Morgan Polysoft.

Getting Started

Empath is written in Python, with Django and FlaskWebGUI.

With uv installed, simply run

uv sync

to install all required dependencies in a Python virtual environment.

Then run

uv run python3 manage.py migrate

to build the database, followed by

uv run python3 manage.py createsuperuser

to create your account.

The application uses Django's built-in Admin Panel to perform some functions. The account created here can be accessed either directly from the Admin Panel button on the left of the UI, or from various CRUD buttons displayed on various pages, usually labeled Add or Update.

To run the application itself use

uv run python3 gui.py
