🎟️TicketBookingSystem
TicketBookingSystem is a web-based application that allows users to browse events, book tickets, and manage their reservations easily. It also includes an Admin Dashboard, where admins can add new events, update ticket availability, and track bookings. The system even sends booking confirmation emails using Nodemailer, ensuring users receive their reservation details instantly.
💡 Example Use Case: Imagine a concert happening in your city. Users visit the website, select an event, choose the number of tickets, enter their details, and make the payment. After booking, they receive an email confirmation with all details. If they need to cancel, they can do so on the website, and the system automatically updates the ticket availability and sends a cancellation email.
🛠 Technologies Used
The project is full-stack, meaning it includes both frontend (what users see) and backend (how the system works behind the scenes).
1️⃣ Frontend (User Interface) HTML → Creates the structure of the website. CSS → Styles the website (colors, fonts, layouts). JavaScript → Adds interactivity (forms, buttons, dynamic updates). Bootstrap → Makes the website responsive (works well on all screens).
2️⃣ Backend (Server & API) Node.js & Express.js → Handles requests from the website (book tickets, cancel bookings, etc.). Nodemailer → Sends booking confirmation emails to users. dotenv → Protects sensitive credentials (like email passwords). Body-parser & CORS → Enables proper data handling between frontend and backend.
3️⃣ Database (Temporary Storage for Events & Bookings) Right now, events & bookings are stored in arrays. In the future, this can be upgraded to MongoDB or MySQL for permanent storage.
