Architecture

Overview

The ¢Change application runs on the following unique components:

• Website (Single-page React application)

• Admin panel (one-page website)

• Server (NodeJS application built on Express)

• Database (MongoDB instance)

These components interface with one another using different subdomains of domain, cchange.ga. The subdomains are routed to the directories or ports which serve the relevant software using an Apache HTTP server.

Back-end Architecture

The ¢Change server uses routes to manipulate functionally encapsulated model **objects using a set of abstract **tools and returns formatted objects or one of a set of predefined errors.

Front-end Architecture

The ¢Change website uses routes to display views which consists of a variety of components, each of which have their own controller functionality. Views and components leverage modules to perform common tasks like validation and HTTP requests to the ¢Change server.
