Inspiration
The inspiration for Stack_Movie came from the growing demand for a seamless movie reservation experience in the digital age. With the rise of online platforms, we aimed to create a user-friendly system that simplifies the process of discovering movies, booking tickets, and managing reservations, all while ensuring an engaging experience for users.
What it does
Stack_Movie is a comprehensive movie reservation system that:

- Enables customers to browse movies and theatres, view showtimes, and make reservations.
- Provides customer support options through call and WhatsApp.
- Utilizes email notifications for authentication and ticket confirmations.
How we built it
We built Stack_Movie using a combination of technologies:
- Designing: we used Figma tool to make wireframes and design of application.
- Frontend: Developed with ReactJs for an interactive user interface.
- Backend: Utilized a server-side language Node.js and Express.Js to handle requests and manage data.
- Database: Implemented a relational database MongoDB to store information about movies, theatres, showtimes, reservations, and users.
- Payment Gateway: Integrated a dummy payment gateway to simulate payment processing without real transactions.
Challenges we ran into
During development, we faced several challenges:
- Data Management: Ensuring data consistency across movies, theatres, and showtimes required careful planning.
- User Authentication: Implementing secure email authentication posed challenges in terms of user privacy and data protection.
- Seating Arrangement Flexibility: Designing a variable seating arrangement that accommodates different configurations was complex.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Successfully creating a user-friendly interface that enhances the customer experience.
- Implementing a robust admin panel that simplifies management tasks.
- Achieving seamless integration between the frontend and backend systems.
- Providing multiple customer support options to enhance user satisfaction.
What we learned
Throughout this project, we learned:
- The importance of thorough planning and design in software development.
