node-ticket-system

About

Node Ticket System originally started out as a PHP application in 2013 to teach myself how to build a PHP/MySQL/Javascript CRUD application.

Over the years I have alway wanted to continue the development of PHP Ticket System I just kept puting it off for one reason or another. Now that a decade has flow by I have decided to reboot the project, only this time using NodeJS, Angular, and MongoDB.

Why the language change?

I honestly did not keep up with all of the PHP changes from version 5 to 7+ and I find NodeJS much simpiler, portable, and easier to use tool for building web applications.
