EELS (Entry and Exit Log System) is a modern access logging platform designed to track entry and exit activities using a web-based interface and IoT integration. It combines a React + Vite frontend, an Express.js backend, and an RFID-based IoT prototype for secure and seamless access management.

• Fast and responsive UI powered by Vite
• Real-time entry and exit log visualization
• Clean dashboard interface
• User-friendly RFID card registration

• Secure communication between frontend and IoT devices
• Scalable and modular architecture

• RFID scanner integration for physical access control
• Tested using Arduino / ESP32 hardware
• Real-time data transmission to backend

git clone https://github.com/your-username/EELS.git
cd EELS

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

cd backend
npm install
npm run start

NOTE: Without RFID (IoT) will result as an error for the backend to fetch data. TIPS: Create a db and use this command below if IoT is unavailable for testing purposes.

    CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS logs (
        id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
        rfid_tag VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
        scan_time DATETIME NOT NULL,
        status ENUM('IN', 'OUT') NOT NULL,
        created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
    );

• Connect RFID scanner to microcontroller.
• Upload firmware to handle card scanning and communication with backend.

• Launch the frontend to access the dashboard.
• Scan RFID cards at the IoT prototype.
• Logs will automatically update in the system.
• Can export summary logs within specific date selected.

• Role-based access control (Admin, User).
• Cloud deployment for scalability.
