Description

The Application is developed using Java 8 and MySQL. The architecture followed is the Data Access Object Model.
There are four main packages:

• DAO Package: Abstract Responsible for executing MySQL CRUD statements.
• Service Package: Responsible for establishing connection with JDBC and passing information along DAO package.
• Entity Package: Responsible for the Business Object entities.
• GUI Package: Responsible for all the UI's, developed using Java swings.

Using the above packages the application is built.

Starter MySQL Script: Schema Scripts
Future Works: ToDo

Built With

• Java 8 - Java
