printers, and scanners, whereas internal hardware devices include motherboards, hard drives, and
RAM. Computer hardware monitoring software can provide ongoing visibility and invaluable
hardware performance metrics through sensors across your enterprise network to help prevent
outages before they affect system performance. It includes monitoring for various hardware
components such as power supply, temperature, fan speed, and more. These monitoring tools can
send instant alerts when the enterprise hardware components reach their threshold values set
according to the specific needs of your network and systems. This software allows you to keep your
company's internal computer network in a good condition to ensure high performance of computer
equipment for your employees. Hardware monitoring tools allow you to continuously monitor the
performance of the units operating on your wide area network.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENT:

PRINTER:-

 A printer is a device that accepts text and graphic output from a computer and transfers the
information to paper, usually to standardsize, 8.5" by 11" sheets of paper. Printers vary insize,
speed, sophistication and cost. In general, more expensive printers are used for more frequent
printing or high-resolution color printing.
 Personal computer printers can be distinguished as impact or non-impact printers. Early
impact printers worked something like an automatic typewriter, with a key striking an inked
impression on paper for each printed character. The dot matrix printer, an impact printer that
strikes the paper a line at a time, was a popular low-cost option.

PROCESSOR:- INTEL

 Intel processors are the most popular CPUs for desktops and laptops in the world. They’re
offered in a range of model families, with names like Core, Xeon, Pentium, and Celeron.
They come in multiple generations like 9th, 10th, and 11th, also called Coffee Lake,
Comet/Ice Lake, and Rocket/Tiger Lake.

8
  These household-word processors power most of the PCs on the market, with specific models
engineered for enhanced speed, mobility, creative workflows, gaming performance, business
news, big data, and other applications.

RAM (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY):-

 RAM stands for random access memory, and it’s one of the most fundamental elements of
computing. RAM is a temporary memory bank where your computer stores data it needs to
retrieve quickly. RAM keeps data easily accessible so your processor can quickly find it
without having to go into long-term storage to complete immediate processing tasks.
 Every computing device has RAM, whether it’s a desktop computer(running Windows,
MacOS, or Linux), a tablet or smartphone (running Android or iOS), or even an LOT
computing device (like a smart TV). Nearly all computers have a way of storing information
for longer-term access, too. But the memory needed to run the process you’re currently
working on is stored and accessed in your computer’s RAM.

SOFTWARE:-
Software is an intricate and vital component of modern computing that encompasses a wide range of
programs and systems designed to enable electronic devices to perform specific functions. It includes
system software, such as operating systems (e.g., Windows, macOS, Linux) that manage hardware

 TECHNOLOGY USED

FRONT

END:-

HTML:-

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It is used to design the web pages. With
the help of HTML, you can create a complete website structure. It is the combination of
Hypertext and Markup language. Hypertext defines the link between the web pages and
markup language defines the text document within the tag that define the structure of web
pages.

HTML is used to create the structure of web pages and website that are displayed on the
Internet.. Also, we can link multiple pages using Hyperlinks. HTML consists of a series of
elements , which you use to enclose, or wrap, different parts of the content to make it appear
a certain way, or act a certain way. The enclosing tags can make a word or image hyperlink to
somewhere else, can italicize words, can make the font bigger or smaller, and so on.

The main parts of our element are as follows:

• The opening tag: This consists of the name of the element (in this case, p), wrapped in
opening and closing angle brackets.

• The closing tag: This is the same as the opening tag, except that it includes a forward
slash before the element name. This states where the element ends.

• The content: This is the content of the element, which in this case, is just text.

• The element: The opening tag, the closing tag, and the content together comprise the
element.

15
Features of HTML

• User Friendly & Simple

You can write HTML using annotations called tags. Tags give HTML a structure and make it
easy for humans and browsers to read the document efficiently. They also enable a browser to
apply CSS (Cascaded StyleSheets) to the digital document, making it a powerful visual
combination.

• Semantic Structure
HTML5 defines unique tags to annotate different elements for their specific purposes. The
tag, for example, is used to annotate content on a page. The<aside> tag represents some
content that is indirectly related to the document’s primary content. Other noteworthy
elements are <header>,<footer> ,<div> , the paragraph tag <p>, and the one most used for
navigation between pages, the <a> tag.

• Platform Independent HTML runs on a browser, and you can find a browser on almost
any device with a simple Operating System. If you had used mobile phones before
smartphones were a thing, you would know that even old Nokia phones that ran Symbian OS
could open HTML pages.

• Media Support HTML can display images, video and audio; therefore, it enjoys excellent
media-running capabilities. HTML5 came up with and tags making this a lot easier than
before. Of course, with HTML5, you can go beyond just playing media; you can specify
controls, images for buttons and even control the playback programmatically.

• Offline Capabilities (PWA) with Cache API & Service Workers Consider creating
a web application that operates even when the user's internet connection is down. Many
applications, such as Flipkart, already do this, and it's known as a PWA (Progressive Web
Application).

16
CSS:-

Cascading Style Sheets, fondly referred to as CSS, is a simple design language intended to
simplify the process of making web pages presentable. Cascading Style Sheets, fondly
referred to as CSS, is a simple design language intended to simplify the process of making
web pages presentable.CSS handles the look and feel part of a web page.

Using CSS, you can control the color of the text, the style of fonts, the spacing between
paragraphs, how columns are sized and laid out, what background images or colors are used,
layout designs, variations in display for different devices and screen sizes as well as a variety
of other effects. CSS is easy to learn and understand but it provides powerful control over the
presentation of an HTML document. Most commonly, CSS is combined with the markup
languages HTML or XHTML.

CSS is designed to enable the separation of content and presentation, including layout, colors,
and fonts. This separation can improve content accessibility; provide more flexibility and
control in the specification of presentation characteristics; enable multiple web pages to share
formatting by specifying the relevant CSS in a separate .css file, which reduces complexity
and repetition in the structural content; and enable the .css file to be cached to improve the
page load speed between the pages that share the file and its formatting.

Features of CSS:

• Saves time

You can write CSS once and then reuse same sheet in multiple HTML pages. You can define
a style for each HTML element and apply it to as many Web pages as you want.

17
• Pages load faster

If you are using CSS, you do not need to write HTML tag attributes every time. Just write
one CSS rule of a tag and apply it to all the occurrences of that tag. So less code means faster
download times.

• Easy maintenance

To make a global change, simply change the style, and all elements in all the web pages will
be updated automatically.

• Superior styles to HTML

CSS has a much wider array of attributes than HTML, so you can give a far better look to
your HTML page in comparison to HTML attributes.

• Multiple Device Compatibility

Style sheets allow content to be optimized for more than one type of device. By using the
same HTML document, different versions of a website can be presented for handheld devices
such as PDAs and cell phones or for printing.

• Global web standards

Now HTML attributes are being deprecated and it is being recommended to use CSS. So its a
good idea to start using CSS in all the HTML pages to make them compatible.

18
 REACT:-

Definition: React is a popular open-source JavaScript library developed by Facebook for building
user interfaces, particularly for single-page applications where dynamic and interactive elements are
crucial. React allows developers to create complex and high-performing web applications with a
component-based architecture, enabling reusable UI components and efficient updates. Its
declarative approach to building user interfaces simplifies the process of designing and managing
dynamic content by abstracting away the complexity of direct DOM manipulation. React’s virtual
DOM mechanism ensures optimal performance by efficiently updating and rendering only the
components that have changed, enhancing the overall user experience.

Key Features:

 Component-Based Architecture: React promotes the development of UI components

that encapsulate their own structure, styling, and behavior. This modular approach allows for
reusable and maintainable code, making it easier to manage complex user interfaces by
breaking them down into smaller, self-contained units.
 Declarative Syntax: React uses a declarative syntax that describes what the UI should look
like based on the current state. Developers define how the UI should appear for different
states of the application, and React handles the rendering and updating of the UI efficiently.
 Virtual DOM: React uses a virtual DOM, which is a lightweight copy of the actual DOM.
When the state of an application changes, React first updates the virtual DOM and then
performs a diffing algorithm to determine the most efficient way to update the actual DOM.
This results in faster rendering and improved performance.
 JSX (JavaScript XML): React introduces JSX, a syntax extension that allows developers
to write HTML-like code within JavaScript. JSX combines the logic and presentation aspects
of a component, making it easier to understand and maintain the UI structure.
 State Management: React provides a built-in state management system to handle dynamic
data within components. State changes trigger re-renders, ensuring the UI reflects the latest
data. For more complex state management, React integrates well with libraries like Redux or
the Context API.

19
  Lifecycle Methods: React components have lifecycle methods that allow developers to
hook into different stages of a component’s existence, such as mounting, updating, and
unmounting. These methods provide control over initialization, updating processes, and
cleanup tasks.
 Hooks: Introduced in React 16.8, hooks are functions that let developers use state and other
React features without writing class components. Key hooks include useState for managing
local state and useEffect for handling side effects like data fetching and subscriptions.
 React Router: For managing navigation in single-page applications, React Router provides
a robust solution for defining routes and rendering components based on the current URL,
enabling dynamic and navigable user experiences.
 React Native: React Native extends React’s component-based architecture to mobile app
development, allowing developers to build cross-platform mobile applications using the same
principles and components as in web development.

Performance and Scalability:

 Efficient Updates: React’s virtual DOM and diffing algorithm minimize the number of
direct updates to the real DOM, resulting in efficient rendering and improved application
performance.
 Component Reusability: By creating reusable components, developers can maintain a
consistent and scalable codebase, simplifying the development of large and complex
applications.

Use Cases:

 Single-Page Applications (SPAs): React is ideal for SPAs that require fast, dynamic
interactions and a smooth user experience.
 Complex UIs: Applications with complex user interfaces, such as dashboards or data-heavy
applications, benefit from React’s component-based structure and performance optimizations.
 Mobile Applications: React Native allows developers to build high-quality native mobile
apps for iOS and Android using React.

In Summary: React is a powerful and flexible library for building interactive and high-
performance user interfaces. Its component-based architecture, declarative approach, and virtual
DOM make it an efficient choice for developing modern web applications. React’s features,
including JSX, hooks, and lifecycle methods, streamline the development process, while its
integration with tools like React Router and React Native extends its capabilities to diverse use cases,
from web to mobile app development.

22
Node.Js:-

Definition: Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment that enables

developers to execute JavaScript code server-side. Built on Chrome’s V8 JavaScript engine, Node.js
is designed to build scalable network applications and handle asynchronous I/O operations
efficiently. Unlike traditional server-side environments that rely on multi-threading, Node.js uses a
single-threaded, event-driven architecture, which makes it particularly well-suited for applications
that require real-time data processing and high concurrency. This architecture allows Node.js to
handle numerous simultaneous connections with minimal overhead, making it ideal for building
high-performance, scalable applications such as web servers, APIs, and real-time applications.

Key Features:

 Event-Driven Architecture: Node.js operates on an event-driven, non-blocking I/O

model. This means that operations such as reading files, querying databases, and handling
