Discussion of two features that show off the team's technical abilities

The stamp creation feature
Writing complex queries

Discussion of both challenges faced and the way the team solved them

Thankfully we faced very few challenges in our group dynamics. We faced the standard code bugs which we worked together to solve. We had pages break without our understanding why, but we were able to fix or rebuild where necessary. We were able to successfully create complex queries and link them to complex routes. Each challenge we faced, we approached as a group and worked together to solve.

Code snippets to highlight the best code

Routes logic to get top 3 countries that people want to visit

router.get('/', csrfProtection, asyncHandler(async (req, res) => {
  const wantToVisit = await topWantToVisit();
  const visited = await topVisited();
  const nearby = await topNearBy();
  res.render('index', { csrfToken: req.csrfToken(), wantToVisit, visited, nearby });
}));

const topNearBy = async () => {
  const topCountries = await Stamp.findAll({
    where: { rating: 5 },
    include: [{
      model: Passport,
      where: { passport_status: "Near By" },
    },
    {
      model: Country
    }
    ],
  });
  const countryObj = {};

  const countryNames = topCountries.map(data => {
    return data.Country.dataValues.name
  });

  countryNames.forEach(country => {
    if (countryObj[country]) {
      countryObj[country]++;
    } else {
      countryObj[country] = 1;
    };
  });

  let countriesArr = Object.entries(countryObj).sort((a, b) => b[1] - a[1]).map(el => el[0])
  return countriesArr.splice(0, 10);
}
