Folder Structure

How it Works!!!

FrontEnd(UI)

• UI Structure
  • Home Page
  • Add Host Page
  • Add Visitor/CheckIn Page
  • Visitor card Page

1. Home Page

• This Home Page includes three Components
  • Main Component : It contains two buttons CHECK IN and ADD HOST. from CheckIn you can CheckIn visitor and from addHost you can add new host.
  • Visitor Dashboard Component : It contains visitors list in tabular formate which includes Name, Email, Address and Action coloums. from Action you can view visitor card of visitor with checkout option.
  • Host Dashboard Component : It contains hosts list in tabular formate which includes Name, Email and Action coloums. from Action you can remove host.

2. Add Host Page

• This contains basic entry form which has Name, Email and Phone fields.
• Host can fill information and be a host !!
• Submit it will redirect to Home Page

3. Add Visitor/CheckIn Page

• This contains basic Entry form which has Name, Email, Phone, Select Host and Address person want to visit.
