🎄 Carolling Tracker - A Christmas Fund Tracker with Spring Boot & Vue.js 🎶

Carolling Tracker is a web-based application to help carolling groups track the money received during their holiday activities. The application allows users to upload donation data in CSV format, display the information in a user-friendly table, and download the updated data. The backend is powered by Spring Boot, and the frontend is built using Vue.js, making the app both dynamic and easy to use.

Features

• Upload CSV: Easily upload CSV files containing donation records (date, caroller, amount).
• View Donations: Display a table of donations and carollers, with the ability to edit data.
• Export Data: Download the updated donation data as a CSV file after processing.
• Responsive Design: Works seamlessly across desktop and mobile devices.
• Interactive Frontend: Built with Vue.js to provide a dynamic user interface.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Vue.js (for building a reactive and modern user interface)
• Backend: Spring Boot (Java-based backend for handling API requests)
• Database: CSV-based storage for simplicity (can be replaced with a database like MySQL or MongoDB)
• API: RESTful API (Spring Boot) for communication between backend and frontend
• Deployment: Can be deployed on platforms like Heroku, AWS, or Vercel
