Project Overview📁

Welcome to the 🍽️Little Lemon Reservation System! 🎉 This project is a modern, responsive web application designed to enhance the table reservation experience for the 🍋Little Lemon restaurant. The goal is to improve user interaction and satisfaction by addressing the negative feedback regarding the previous 📰reservation functionality.

Project Scenario📁

The owners of 🍋Little Lemon received feedback that users found the table reservation process confusing and unsatisfactory. As a front-end developer, your task was to create a user-friendly interface that simplifies the reservation process while maintaining the restaurant's brand identity.

⚙️Tech Stack

• 🌐 HTML: HTML (HyperText Markup Language) was used to structure the content of the web application. It provides the foundational elements such as headings, paragraphs, input fields, buttons, and links. The semantic structure ensures that the content is accessible and organized, making it easier for users to navigate.

• 🎨 CSS: CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) was employed to style the application, allowing for the design of visually appealing layouts and elements. It was used to apply colors, fonts, spacing, and other visual properties, ensuring that the application aligns with the Little Lemon brand identity. Responsive design techniques, such as media queries, were also implemented to adapt the layout to different screen sizes.

• 📜 JavaScript: JavaScript provided the interactivity needed for a dynamic user experience. It was used to handle form submissions, validate user input, and provide real-time feedback (such as error messages for missing fields). JavaScript also enabled seamless transitions between different screens within the application, enhancing user engagement.

• ⚛️ React: React is a JavaScript library used for building user interfaces. In this project, it facilitated the creation of reusable components, such as forms and buttons, promoting a modular approach to development. React's state management capabilities allowed for efficient handling of user input and dynamic rendering of components, improving the overall responsiveness of the application.

• 📱 Responsive Web Design: Responsive web design principles were applied to ensure that the application functions well on various devices, including desktops, tablets, and mobile phones. By using flexible layouts, fluid grids, and media queries, the application maintains usability and aesthetics across different screen sizes, making it accessible to a broader audience. Summary
