• Vite 6.3.1 - Fast build tool and development server
• Tailwind CSS 4.1.4 - Utility-first CSS framework
• React Router DOM 7.5.1 - Client-side routing
• Axios 1.8.4 - HTTP client for API communication
• Chart.js 4.4.9 - Data visualization and analytics
• jsPDF 3.0.1 - PDF generation and reporting

Backend

• Node.js 14+ - JavaScript runtime environment
• Express.js 4.21.2 - Web application framework
• Microsoft SQL Server - Primary relational database
• mssql 10.0.4 & tedious 18.6.1 - SQL Server connectivity
• JWT (jsonwebtoken 9.0.2) - Secure authentication tokens

Map Integration & Location Services

• Google Maps API - Interactive mapping and route planning
• Distance Matrix API - Real-time distance and duration calculations
• Geocoding API - Address to coordinates conversion
• Places API - Location search and autocomplete
• Route Optimization - Multi-destination trip planning
• Real-time Location Tracking - Live driver and trip tracking

🗄️ Database Architecture

Microsoft SQL Server with optimized schema design:

Core Tables

• Users - Authentication and profile data
• Tourists - Tourist profiles and preferences
• Drivers - Driver profiles and verification status
• Vehicles - Vehicle specifications and images
• Destinations - Sri Lankan tourist destinations
• BookingRequests - Trip booking with status tracking
• DriverNotifications - Real-time notification system
• Distances - Pre-calculated distance matrix for optimization

Key Relationships

• Users → Tourists/Drivers (One-to-One with CASCADE DELETE)
• BookingRequests → Users (Many-to-One via tourist_id)
• DriverNotifications → BookingRequests & Drivers (Many-to-One)

⚠️ Important: BookingRequests.tourist_id references Users.user_id directly, not Tourists.tourist_id.
