Welcome!
This repository holds the code for TrackNBook, a comprehensive train reservation and tracking system designed for Sri Lanka. We, a group of second-year students from the University of Colombo School of Computing, built this project from scratch to address limitations in the current web-based system.
What We Aim To Solve
- Inefficient Booking: TrackNBook simplifies online booking and eliminates the need for physical warrants, streamlining the reservation process.
- Limited Online Reservations: Our system allows for a wider range of online reservations compared to the existing platform.
- Outdated Information: TrackNBook provides real-time updates on train locations, cancellations, and delays, keeping passengers informed.
Key Features
- Simplified Booking: Book tickets and generate e-tickets directly within the system.
- Automated Warrants: Forget physical warrants! TrackNBook handles warrant procedures electronically.
- Live Train Updates: Get real-time information on train location, cancellations, and delays.
- Waiting List: Don't miss out! Add yourself to the waiting list for sold-out trains.
- Live Seat Map: View real-time seat availability for informed decision-making.
Development Journey
As a second-year project, TrackNBook was built entirely from scratch without the use of frameworks. While challenging, this approach allowed for a deeper understanding of the underlying technologies.
Technologies Used
- Front-End Development: HTML, CSS, JQuery
- Back-End Development: PHP
- Diagram Design: Draw.io
