Books Management System Overview This project is a web-based Books Management System built using React.js for the frontend, Express.js for the backend, and MySQL as the database, managed through MySQL Workbench. It allows users to:
View a list of books: Get an overview of all books in the system, including their titles, descriptions, and other relevant information. Add new books: Easily add new books to the database, providing necessary details. Update book information: Modify existing book entries as needed to keep the system accurate. Delete books: Remove books from the database that are no longer relevant or required.
