Documentation

Money tracking app is built using the MERN stack, which includes a MongoDB database, an Express server, a React client-side interface, and Node.js as the runtime environment.

The app allows you to track your expenses and income, and to view your transaction history in a user-friendly interface.

Features

• Search for a cryptocurrency and view its details
• View the latest price of a cryptocurrency and its price trend using a chart
• View the top cryptocurrencies sorted by market cap
• View the news related to cryptocurrencies

File Structure

• src/main.js: The main entry point of the application.
• src/App.jsx: The main component of the application.
• backend/models: Contains all schema for database
• backend/index.js: Server file for Express

Usage

Once the app is running, you can start tracking your money:

• To add a new transaction fill out the form with the transaction details and click "Add" button to save it to the database.
• You can view your transaction history below the form. This will display a list of all your transactions, with the most recent ones at the top.
• To view your balance, check the "Balance" section in the header. This displays the total of all your income transactions minus the total of all your expense transactions.

API Endpoints

The money tracking app has the following API endpoints:

• GET /api/transactions: returns all transactions in the database.
• POST /api/transactions: adds a new transaction to the database.
