The Mechanic Shop Backend project is a fullstack CRUD application built during the first half of my second year. This application enables authenticated users to manage a list of vehicles and maintenance records through an intuitive React-based interface. The project combines React/Vite for the frontend, Express.js for the backend, and MongoDB for data storage.
What I Worked On
-
Frontend Development with React/Vite:
Designed and built a dynamic user interface using React and Vite. The UI allows users to create, update, and delete mechanic shop entries seamlessly. -
Backend API with Express.js:
Implemented RESTful API endpoints to manage vehicle and maintenance data. These endpoints interact with a MongoDB database for persistent storage. -
User Authentication:
Integrated basic authentication to secure the application, ensuring that only authorized users can perform CRUD operations. -
Responsive Design and Clean UI:
Applied Bootstrap and custom CSS to create a clean, responsive layout that enhances user interaction and overall usability.
Future Enhancements
- Enhanced Authentication and Roles:
Introduce advanced user roles to control access, ensuring that only authorized personnel can update records. - Detailed Read Pages:
Create detailed views for each vehicle entry that include comments and service history. - Commenting System:
Allow users to add comments to document work performed on each car, including details like date completed and cost.
