Capacity

Our web-based application, currently named Capacity, is a tool that will help you save time by giving you the information you wish you had before getting to your destination. Our website can be found here: https://ssajnani.github.io/Capacity/homepage.html

Repository Structure

Our repository structure is seperated under frontend and backend, both developed in javascript. The backend uses node, express, and mongodb. The frontend uses vue. The frontend files are already compiled into the backend public folder so setup is easier.

Setup
