✈️ Airline Management System (Phase 1)

A full-stack flight reservation platform engineered with React.js and Node.js, featuring secure authentication and role-based dashboards.

📖 Overview

This project serves as the foundational architecture for an airline booking system. It creates a clear separation between Admin operations (flight scheduling, fleet management) and User operations (search, booking, history). The system is built on a RESTful API architecture ensuring stateless communication.

🚀 Key Features

• 🔐 Secure Authentication: Stateless User and Admin sessions using JSON Web Tokens (JWT).
• 👤 Interactive User Dashboard: Search flights, view booking history, and manage profile details.
• 🛠️ Admin Control Panel: Complete CRUD capabilities for managing flight schedules and passenger manifests.
• 📡 RESTful API: clean and documented endpoints for client-server communication.

🛠️ Tech Stack

• Frontend: React.js, React Router, CSS Modules
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js
• Database: MongoDB
• Auth: BCrypt (hashing), JWT
