Stay Booker Pro is a production-ready hotel booking website built with modern web technologies. It is designed to be a fully functional and responsive web application for hotel booking services. For the backend api checkout: staybooker-express-api

Key Features

• Production-Ready: Crafted with production requirements in mind.
• Modern Tech Stack: Built using React, Tailwind CSS, MirageJS for mocking APIs, and Cypress for end-to-end testing.
• Skeleton Loading: Implements skeleton screens for an enhanced user experience during data loading.
• Responsive Design: Fully responsive interface built purely with Tailwind CSS.
• Comprehensive Test Coverage: Extensive test cases using Cypress to cover every functionality, ensuring robust and reliable code.
• Future Backend Integration: Planned integration with a backend built using Express.js.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• Node.js
• npm or yarn

Installing

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/iZooGooD/stay-booker-pro.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd stay-booker-pro

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   # or
   yarn install

4. Start the development server:

   npm start
   # or
   yarn start

The application should now be running on http://localhost:3000.

Running the Tests

To ensure the reliability and stability of the application, comprehensive test suites have been written using Cypress.

To run the tests:

npm test
# or
npx cypress open

This command will open the Cypress test runner, where you can execute specific tests or the entire test suite.

Code Quality and Workflow

Husky for Pre-Commit Hooks

Stay Booker Pro uses Husky to manage pre-commit hooks, ensuring that code quality and formatting standards are maintained. Before each commit, Husky runs various checks to make sure that the committed code adheres to defined standards.

GitHub Workflow

The project is equipped with a GitHub Actions workflow to automate the testing, building, and code quality checks. The workflow consists of three primary jobs:

1. Build: Ensures that the application builds correctly on each push and pull request to the master branch.

2. Code Quality - Prettier: Checks code formatting using Prettier. This step helps maintain a consistent coding style and format across the project.

3. Run Tests: Executes the test suites to ensure all tests pass. This step is crucial for identifying issues early and maintaining the reliability of the application.

Continuous Integration and Code Quality

This automated workflow ensures that each change to the codebase is built, tested, and checked for code quality, thereby maintaining the overall health and reliability of the application. It encourages a culture of continuous integration and frequent, reliable delivery of high-quality software.

It would be most appropriate to include the linting instructions in the "Contributing" section of your documentation. This approach helps to ensure that contributors are aware of the coding standards and practices expected for your project right from the start. By integrating linting guidelines with contribution instructions, you emphasize the importance of code quality as an integral part of the contribution process.

Here's how you can seamlessly incorporate it into the "Contributing" section:

Contributing

We welcome contributions to Stay Booker Pro! If you have suggestions or would like to contribute code, please feel free to create issues or submit pull requests.

Code Quality and Linting

As part of our commitment to maintain high code quality, we use ESLint for linting. Before submitting a Pull Request or committing any changes, please ensure you run the following command:

npm run lint-fix

This will automatically fix many common linting errors. If there are errors that can't be auto-fixed, ESLint will report them, and you should manually address these issues. Maintaining a consistent coding standard is crucial for the project.

If you need to bypass the linting check in a special case, you can use the -n parameter with git commit. However, we strongly advise against skipping lint checks as it can compromise code quality:

git commit -m "Your commit message" -n

Future Scope

• Backend integration with Express.js for a complete full-stack experience.
• Additional features and improvements to the booking process.
