Travel Tracker has two user interfaces, the traveler and the travel agent. Both users can log in to view their dashboard.

The traveler's dashboard displays all of the traveler's trips and their annual travel expenses. The traveler can view an estimate for a potential trip and request a new trip.

The travel agent dashboard displays new trip requests by travelers. The agent can view their total yearly income and the traveler's on trips for the current year. The travel agent can approve and deny any pending trips; and search for a user by their name in order to:

• View that travelers trips and expenses
• Approve trip request
• Delete upcoming trips.

Client-side server

• In the terminal, run the command git clone to clone this repo
• cd into the directory cd travel-tracker
• Run npm install to download all necessary packages and dependencies
• Run npm start to run the client-side server
  • Go to https://localhost:8080/
  • Enter control + c in your terminal to stop the server at any time.

Back-end server

• Create a new directory on your local machine. The new directory should be a separate directory from the front end application.
• In the new directory, clone down this Node.js/Express.js back-end server using command git clone
• Open a new terminal tab and cd into the directory cd travel-tracker-api
• Run npm start to start up the back-end server
  • You should see a similar message in the terminal:

  [nodemon] starting node server.js
  Travel Tracker API is now running on https://localhost:3001 ! 
  

  • Both servers must be running in order for the application to work as expected.
  • Enter control + c in your terminal to stop the server at any time.

For this project, I used the Webpack Starter Kit repo. The setup instructions are in the README. I also cloned down this back-end server and had it running in a separate tab in my terminal every time I ran my client-side server.

When you first arrive at the site, the user must login with their correct credentials in order to navigate to their dashboard.

• To log in use traveler[:id] as the username and travel as the password. For example, username: traveler12 and password: travel
• A message will alert the user if the incorrect username and password was entered.
• Upon successful login, the traveler will see their dashboard which displays all their trips, a trip request form and an annual expense report for the current year.

• The traveler can see the estimate cost for a new trip by filling out the form.
• The traveler can make a new trip request by submitting the form.
• The trip request form handles these errors and alerts the user to resolve:
  • All input fields must be filled
  • The selected dates cannot be a date in the past
  • Number of travelers has a max of 10

The trips displayed can be filtered by all, past, upcoming, and pending trips.

The user can sign out to navigate back to the login screen.
