The Parents Visit Tracking System is a web-based application designed to streamline and enhance the management of parent visits in an institution. Built using ReactJS, Tailwind CSS, SQL, and GoLang, the system facilitates secure and efficient visitor tracking. It comprises three key roles: Admin, Security Staff, and Parent (Visitor). The Admin manages visit requests, approves or rejects them, and monitors visitor logs through analytics. Security Staff verifies parents upon arrival, records entry and exit timestamps, and ensures authorized access. Parents can submit visit requests, track approval status, and receive real-time notifications.

The backend, powered by Node.js and GoLang, implements secure authentication and role-based access control (RBAC) using JWT. APIs handle visit requests, approvals, and attendance logging, while WebSocket integration enables real-time updates. The React.js frontend provides user-friendly dashboards tailored to each role, ensuring seamless interaction. The MySQL database efficiently manages visit records, logs, and user data, incorporating robust security measures such as password hashing, API validation, CORS enforcement, and input sanitization. This system significantly enhances visit management, improves security, and offers a structured, transparent approach to institutional visitor tracking.
