The Employee Review System is a web-based application that facilitates the process of employee performance reviews within an organization. It allows employees to provide feedback on their colleagues' performance, fostering a culture of constructive feedback and continuous improvement. The system supports both named and anonymous reviews, ensuring a flexible and inclusive approach to performance evaluation.
The system employs Passport.js and Passport-local for user authentication, ensuring secure access to the application. Employees can log in using their credentials, and the system supports local authentication.
Employees can submit reviews for their peers, managers, or team members. The review process includes a range of criteria, such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and more. Reviews can be submitted anonymously to encourage honest and unbiased feedback.
One of the key features of the Employee Review System is the ability to submit anonymous reviews. This ensures that employees feel comfortable providing candid feedback without fear of repercussions. The system uses Express-session for managing user sessions securely.
The application utilizes MongoDB as the database to store employee information, reviews, and user data. Connect-mongo is used for session storage, providing a persistent session store backed by MongoDB.
Connect-flash is integrated into the system to display flash messages, providing feedback to users about the success or failure of their actions, such as successful login or errors during the review submission process.
The frontend of the application is built using EJS templates and styled with SASS. Express-ejs-layouts helps in structuring and rendering the views seamlessly.
Nodemon is used as a development dependency to ensure real-time updates during the development process. This facilitates a smooth development experience with automatic server restarts on code changes.
