Spending manager

A "single-page" application for managing spendings based on:

• fronty.js, a simple library for building Component-based Web user interfaces
• jQuery.js
• Handlebars

Note: This is an educational project.

The front-end is responsive, uses JavaScript and AJAX and interacts with the backend via its REST API.

Requirements

1. PHP.
2. MySQL.
3. A PHP-capable HTTP Server.

Architecture overview

The base architecture is defined by fronty.js. In this sense, the main artifacts are:

• Models, which are JavaScript objects containing application state, like PostsModel and UserModel.
• Components, which are JavaScript objects in charge of rendering different parts of the application.
• Renderers in Handlebars language containing the HTML fragments separated from JavaScript.

In addition, this application includes a library for Internationalization (I18n) in js/i18n folder.

Installation

A quick installation process could be:

1. Download spending_manager.
2. Import the SQL file moneyspendings.sql into your MySQL DB (it will create a DB called moneyspendings with a user admin).
3. Start your server and access it: http://localhost/spending_manager/frontend/index.html.
