Deployed project: COGIP
Documentation : How to cogip
Developed as part of the BeCode bootcamp, the COGIP project is a web application designed to modernize the accounting process for Jean-Christian Ranu at COGIP. This application primarily focuses on backend functionalities to enhance efficiency and user experience in accounting tasks.
PHP: Used for server-side logic.
POO (Object-Oriented Programming): Enhances code modularity and reusability.
MVC (Model-View-Controller): Organizes code structure for efficient development and maintenance.
Namespace: Manages and encapsulates classes.
Bramus Router: A lightweight PHP router for handling HTTP requests.
Filp/Whoops: For elegant error handling in PHP.
Bastien: Focused on setting up the MVC architecture and integrating the Bramus Router for efficient request handling.
Thomas (me): Worked on database interactions, including CRUD operations, and implemented filp/whoops for error management.
CRUD Operations: Create, Read, Update, and Delete functionality for managing invoices, companies, and contacts.
Validation & Sanitization: Ensures data integrity and security.

Database Structure
Improving API security:
due to a lack of time, we didn't implemented authentication and ApiKey. We will see later to implement these features.
Optimizing database queries for performance:
We used db4free.net to host our database and for this litlle project it works but requests take a lot of time... (but it's free...)
Implementing additional backend features as per project requirements.
The API created by Bastien & myself, is called by our frontend teammates :COGIP
