2.2 Flowcharts.
• Customer registration: The customer will use his particular data e-mail and password to
log into the shop. After submitting the form, the html5 checks if all the fields have been
filled correctly. If the condition is not met the customer remains on the same page but if the
fields are correctly filled the customer login information is sent to the database to check if
the data entered into the areas are same as the ones used to register to the database.

Fig 2.1: Customer registration

• Admin registration: The Administrator will use his particular data such as name, e-mail,
and password. After submitting the form, the html5 checks to see if all the fields entered by
the adminis correct. If the filed are not correctly filed, or conditions are not met the admin
remains on the same page but if all requirements are met admin's information goesto the
database and saves the data in the "Admins" in the database. After that, the administrator is
directed to the admin webpage to log in.

 CHAPTER 3: IMPLEMENTATION

3.1: TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES USED

• REACT: React is a popular and widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces
(UIs). It was developed by Facebook and has gained significant popularity due to its
efficiency and reusability in creating interactive and dynamic web applications. The main
concept behind React is the creation of reusable UI components. Components are building
blocks that encapsulate both the structure and behaviour of a particular part of a user
interface. This modular approach allows developers to create complex applications by
combining and reusing smaller, self-contained components. React utilizes a virtual DOM
(Document Object Model) to efficiently update and render components. When changes
occur in the application's data or state, React updates only the necessary parts of the DOM,
resulting in faster and more efficient rendering compared to traditional DOM manipulation.
One of the key advantages of React is its ability to build single-page applications (SPAs)
that provide a seamless user experience without the need for page reloads. React also
supports server-side rendering (SSR), which improves initial page load times and enhances
search engine optimization (SEO).
• HTML: stands for hypertext markup language is the standard markup language used for
creating web pages and applications. It provides the structure and content of a web page by
defining the elements and their relationships within the document. HTML uses a tag-based
syntax, where tags are enclosed in angle brackets (< >) and are used to mark up different
parts of the content. These tags define the structure and semantics of the web page elements,
such as headings, paragraphs, images, links, lists, tables, forms, and more.
• CSS: stands for cascading style sheets is a stylesheet language used to describe the
presentation and visual appearance of a web page written in HTML or XML. It is
responsible for the styling, layout, and design aspects of a web page, enhancing its visual
appeal and user experience. In summary, CSS is a powerful styling language that works in
conjunction with HTML to control the visual appearance and layout of web pages. It offers
flexibility, control, and creativity in designing attractive and user-friendly websites.
• Node JS: is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment built on
Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. It allows developers to run JavaScript code outside the
browser, enabling server-side and command-line application development In summary,
Node.js extends JavaScript to the server-side, providing a powerful and efficient platform
for building scalable, event-driven applications. Its asynchronous nature, extensive package

6
 ecosystem, and cross-platform compatibility make it a popular choice for web and network
application development
• Express JS: is a minimalistic and flexible web application framework for Node.js. It
provides a set of features and tools to build web applications and APIs quickly and
efficiently. Express.js simplifies the process of handling HTTP requests, routing,
middleware integration, and managing application logic
• Mongo DB: is a popular open-source NoSQL database that uses a flexible document-
oriented data model. It is designed to store, retrieve, and manage structured and unstructured
data with high scalability and performance. In summary, MongoDB is a flexible and
scalable NoSQL database that offers high performance and allows for easy data modeling
and retrieval. When combined with Express.js, developers can build powerful and efficient
web applications that store and retrieve data using MongoDB's document-oriented
approach.

These are just a few examples of the future scope for an invoice website. The specific direction
of development would depend on factors such as user needs, market trends, and technological
advancements. Continuously monitoring user feedback, staying updated with industry
standards, and being responsive to emerging.
1. Recurring Invoices: Implement the ability to create recurring invoices for regular billing
cycles, such as monthly or annually. This feature would automate the generation and
delivery of invoices, saving time for businesses with recurring customers or
subscription-based services.
2. Late Payment Reminders: Set up automated reminders to notify clients about upcoming
or overdue payments. This can help reduce late payments and improve cash flow for
businesses.
3. Credit Notes and Refunds: Enable the creation of credit notes or refunds within the
website, allowing users to handle situations where adjustments or refunds are necessary.
This feature can help maintain accurate financial records and streamline the refund
process.
4. Multi-user Collaboration: Allow multiple users with different roles and permissions to
collaborate on the website. This feature is particularly useful for businesses with teams
involved in the invoicing process, enabling efficient collaboration and access control.
5. Time Tracking and Billing: Integrate time tracking functionality into the website,
allowing users to track billable hours for projects or services. This can facilitate accurate
billing based on hourly rates or project milestones.
6. Expense Reimbursement: Extend the website's capabilities to manage expense
reimbursement processes. Users can submit expense claims, attach receipts, and track
reimbursement status, streamlining expense management for businesses.
7. Client Portal: Create a dedicated client portal where clients can log in to view their
invoices, payment history, and account statements. This self-service feature enhances
transparency and convenience for clients, reducing support requests.
8. Customizable Templates: Provide a range of customizable invoice templates, allowing
users to select a design that aligns with their branding and preferences. Users can add
their logos, change colors, and customize the layout to create professional-looking
invoices.
