This project demonstrates a simple application using Node.js, NeDB, React.js with TypeScript, and the OpenRouteService API. The application allows users to add, delete, and organize destinations, and calculates the distance and travel time between points using the OpenRouteService API.

Project Structure

The project is divided into two main parts:

• Backend: Node.js server with NeDB for data storage.
• Frontend: React.js application with TypeScript.

API Key

1. Navigate to the Backend Directory

   cd backend

2. Install Dependencies

   npm install

3. Start the Server

   For development:

   npx nodemon

   The server will run on http://localhost:5000.

Frontend

1. Navigate to the Frontend Directory

   cd frontend

2. Install Dependencies

   npm install

3. Start the React Application

   npm start

   The React app will run on http://localhost:3000.

API Key

The project includes a free OpenRouteService API key with usage limits. If you exceed the free plan's limits or need additional features, you can obtain your own API key by creating an account at OpenRouteService. To use your own API key, set it in the backend configuration file (e.g., .env).

2. Start the Frontend Application

   Open another terminal, navigate to the frontend directory, and run:

   npm start

   This will start the React development server.

3. Access the Application

   Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 to view the application.
