Creating A Website With Frontend

The document outlines the steps to create a basic travel agency website using popular frontend, backend, and database technologies. It involves setting up the project structure with separate folders for frontend, backend, and other files. It then details creating the frontend with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the backend with Node.js and Express, connecting to a MongoDB database, and implementing a mock payment gateway API for testing purposes. The overall process is broken down into 7 steps to set up the necessary technologies and files, and test the application.

Creating a website with frontend, backend, and a database involves multiple steps and technologies.

Given the complexity of your requirements (showing agency details, enabling booking, and integrating a
payment gateway), I'll provide you with a simplified example using popular technologies: HTML, CSS,
JavaScript for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, and MongoDB for the database. We'll also use a
simple payment gateway mock for testing purposes.

### Step 1: Set up the project structure

Create a new project folder and organize it like this:

```

travel-agency-website/

|-- frontend/

| |-- index.html

| |-- style.css

| |-- script.js

|-- backend/

| |-- server.js

|-- package.json

```

### Step 2: Frontend

#### `frontend/index.html`

```html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

<title>Travel Agency</title>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

</head>

<body>

<h1>Travel Agency</h1>

<!-- Your HTML content for agency details, booking form, etc. -->

<script src="script.js"></script>

</body>

</html>

```

#### `frontend/style.css`

```css

/* Your CSS styles go here */

```

#### `frontend/script.js`

```js

// Your JavaScript code for handling user interactions goes here

```

### Step 3: Backend

#### `backend/server.js`

```javascript
const express = require('express');

const bodyParser = require('body-parser');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

app.use(bodyParser.json());

// Your backend routes for handling agency details, booking, etc. go here

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

```

### Step 4: Database

For simplicity, let's use MongoDB as a database.

#### Install MongoDB

Follow the official guide to install MongoDB: [MongoDB


Installation](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/installation/)

#### Connect to MongoDB in your `backend/server.js`

```javascript

const mongoose = require('mongoose');

mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/travel-agency', { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology:


true });
// Define MongoDB schemas and models for your data

// Example:

// const agencySchema = new mongoose.Schema({

// name: String,

// // ... other fields

// });

// const Agency = mongoose.model('Agency', agencySchema);

```

### Step 5: Payment Gateway (Mock)

For simplicity, you can create a mock payment gateway using a simple API endpoint on your backend.

#### Modify `backend/server.js`

```javascript

app.post('/payment', (req, res) => {

// Handle payment logic here (e.g., validate payment details, charge the user)

// For simplicity, assume all payments are successful

res.json({ success: true, message: 'Payment successful' });

});

```

### Step 6: Running the Application

1. Install Node.js and npm: [Node.js Download](https://nodejs.org/)

2. Install dependencies: In your project folder, run `npm init -y` and then `npm install express body-
parser mongoose`.
3. Run your backend: In the `backend` folder, run `node server.js`.

4. Open your browser and go to http://localhost:3000 to see your frontend.

### Step 7: Testing

You can use tools like Postman or Insomnia to test your backend API endpoints. For the payment
gateway mock, you can simulate a successful payment by sending a POST request to
`http://localhost:3000/payment`.

Note: This is a simplified example, and a production-ready application would require additional security
measures, error handling, and a more robust database schema. Additionally, integrating a real payment
gateway involves more complex procedures and security considerations.
