Specifications

1. Create a new ExpressJS application called food-truck. This application will be the backend for your project. It should have routes for serving static files, as well as an API for getting the menu and events. The back-end will store the menu and events in a MongoDB (Atlas) database.

2. Create API routes for the following:

   • GET /api/v1/menu - This route should return a JSON object that contains the menu items for the food truck. The menu should contain at least 5 items, and each item should have a name, description, price, and url for an image.

   • GET /api/v1/events - This route should return a JSON object that contains the events for the food truck. The events should contain at least 5 items, and each item should have a name, location, date, and time.

   • GET api/v1/menu/:id - This route should return a JSON object that contains the menu item with the specified id.

   • GET /api/v1/events/:id - This route should return a JSON object that contains the event with the specified id.

   • POST /api/v1/menu - This route should add a new menu item to the database. The request body should contain the name, description, price, and image URL for the new menu item.

   • POST /api/v1/events - This route should add a new event to the database. The request body should contain the name, location, date, and time for the new event.

3. For the front-end, create routes for the following pages:

   • / - This route should display the home page for the food truck. It should contain the menu items and an overview of the events (name and date). When a user clicks on an event, they should be taken to the /event/:eventId route.

   • /event/:eventId - This route should display the complete details of the event, including the location and time.

   • /admin - This route should display a form for adding new menu items and events. The form should have fields for name, description, price, and image URL for menu items, and name, location, date, and time for events.

4. Style your application using CSS. I am not looking for anything fancy, but make sure it is clean, easy to read, and the colors are consistent.

5. Your menu and events should be stored in a MongoDB database. You can use the module that we created in class to connect to the database.

Finding a Partner/Group

You will need to find a partner (or two) to work on this project with. I have setup a Teams Channel for this purpose.

Working Collaboratively

Once you have found a partner, you will need to decide who is going to work on what parts of the project. Additionally, who is going to be responsible for setting up the repository on GitHub, and who is going to be responsible for setting up the MongoDB database. If you have any questions or need help, please reach out to me.
