Welcome to the Hotel Booking App project! This document serves as an introduction and guide to understanding the scope, objectives, and structure of our project. The Hotel Booking App is designed to provide users with a seamless experience for searching, booking, and managing hotel reservations.

The Hotel Booking App is a comprehensive platform that allows users to:

• Search for hotels based on location, date, and preferences.
• View detailed information about each hotel, including room availability, amenities, and pricing.
• Book rooms and manage their reservations.
• Provide ratings and reviews for hotels they have stayed at.

The primary objectives of the Hotel Booking App project are:

1. User-Friendly Interface: Design an intuitive and easy-to-use interface for both web and mobile platforms.
2. Comprehensive Search: Implement robust search functionality that allows users to filter results based on various criteria.
3. Secure Booking System: Ensure that the booking process is secure and protects user data.
4. Real-Time Availability: Provide real-time updates on room availability and pricing.
5. Review System: Allow users to leave feedback and read reviews from other customers.
6. Responsive Design: Ensure that the app is fully responsive and works well on all devices.

The Hotel Booking App will be built using the following technologies:

• Frontend: React for web.
• Backend: Spring boot.
• Database: MySQL for data storage.
• Authentication: JWT for user authentication.
• Hosting: AWS for backend services and deployment.

The project will be organized into several modules:

1. User Management: Handles user registration, login, and profile management.
2. Hotel Search: Implements the search functionality and displays search results.
3. Booking System: Manages the booking process, including payment integration.
4. Reviews and Ratings: Allows users to leave reviews and view feedback.
5. Admin Panel: Admin interface for managing hotel listings, bookings, and user accounts.
