This is a travel-themed application where an authenticated user can add and compile a list of hotels that they've traveled to in their lifetime. This application should get users to give into the urge to travel more and explore some authentic places that they want to travel to!

As of right now, I have not discovered any outstanding and critical bugs that hinder the functionality of this application. On the other hand, given that this is a travel-themed application, I do want to create another table in rails where a user can have many flights that include an airline, a flight number, a departing destination, and an arriving destination. Furthermore, I do want to include a Google Maps/Location API within the application so that the location of the hotel shows on the user's list of hotels, as well as potentially incorporating a 3rd party travel API (i.e. TripAdvisor, Kayak, Expedia, etc.) to include various airlines for the flight that the user adds to their list.
Within the first day of project week, I was already drawing out my wireframes
and designing my ERDs, and I was also able to accomplish creating a single
hotels table under user in Rails. After getting all of my curl scripts to work
in my back end, I then decided to focus all of my attention to getting my front
end fully functional using React. While navigating through each component and
fully rendering each one was a bit of a challenge, since I am fairly new to
React after, all, I used previous React lessons from the week before as a guide
to make sure I had all of my states correct, that nothing was causing a
component to crash, etc. I also embraced the beauty of the issue cue, where
instructors would guide me to very minor things in my code that caused the
client to break, such as missing hotel in a particular state while having
something else in its place.
