Parking Simulation

The Parking Simulation project is a comprehensive application developed entirely using JavaScript, with backend support implemented twice using different technologies: Python and .NET (ASP.NET). The application simulates a parking environment where users can manage vehicle data within parking spots, tracking various attributes and calculating parking fees based on duration.

Features

Vehicle Data Management - Users can input and manage details of vehicles including color, brand, model, and registration number.
Parking Duration Tracking - The application tracks the total time each vehicle remains parked.
CRUD Operations - Users can add, update, and delete vehicle entries.
Parking Fee Calculation - The first 3 hours of parking are free. Beyond that, the application calculates the total parking fee based on the number of hours parked and the hourly rate.
Parking System - The application includes a parking system that manages check-ins and check-outs of vehicles.
Multi-Level Parking - Users can park vehicles on different levels of the garage. It is also possible to add or remove levels within the garage as needed.
User Registration and Login - Users can register and log in to the application.
Role-Based Access Control:
- Guest - Can view parked vehicles.
- User - Can add and manipulate their own vehicles.
- Admin - Can manipulate any vehicle and manage garage levels.

Backend Technologies

JavaScript with Python (MySQL)

Database Communication - Uses Python to communicate with a MySQL database.
Data Handling - Python scripts handle backend processes, ensuring smooth interaction with the database for storing and retrieving vehicle data.

JavaScript with .NET (ASP.NET, SQL Server)

Database Communication - Utilizes ASP.NET with a SQL Server database specifically designed for this application.
Web Application Framework - Provides a robust framework for managing backend operations and seamless interaction with the frontend.
Technology Stack - Developed using .NET, ASP.NET, and C# to ensure high performance and reliability.
