-This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org) project bootstrapped with [`create-next-app`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/cli/create-next-app).
+# Travel AntarKota
 
-## Getting Started
+Travel AntarKota is a premium, high-performance, and feature-rich containerized Intercity Travel Booking Web Application built using Next.js 14, Prisma, and MySQL.
 
-First, run the development server:
+Designed with a modern, responsive **Glassmorphism Dark Theme**, it provides customers with a seamless ticket booking workflow and gives administrators full control over routes, schedules, transactions, and branding options.
 
-```bash
-npm run dev
-# or
-yarn dev
-# or
-pnpm dev
-# or
-bun dev
-```
+---
 
-Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) with your browser to see the result.
+## Key Features
 
-You can start editing the page by modifying `app/page.tsx`. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
+### 👤 Customer Features
+- **Route Search**: Find active intercity schedules by departure and arrival cities, date, and ticket pricing.
+- **Seat Selection**: Interactive, vehicle-specific visual layout selection (Toyota HiAce 10-seater or Executive Bus 30-seater) preventing duplicate seat bookings in real time.
+- **Digital Ticketing**: Generate and view digital tickets with QR/barcode references once payment is verified.
+- **Order Tracking**: Check booking status (Pending, Lunas, Batal) at any time.
+- **User Profile**: Dedicated customer dashboard to manage active tickets, view travel history, update personal details, and change security passwords.
 
-This project uses [`next/font`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/optimizing/fonts) to automatically optimize and load [Geist](https://vercel.com/font), a new font family for Vercel.
+### ⚙️ Administrator Features
+- **Dashboard Overview**: Visual overview statistics for bookings, routes, active vehicles, revenue, and pending schedules.
+- **Route Management**: Add, update, or remove intercity routes, durations, and pricing.
+- **Schedule Management**: Create departure schedules linked to active routes, select vehicle formats, and define pricing overrides.
+- **Booking Management**: Audit transaction logs, view passenger details, confirm payments, and cancel bookings.
+- **Dynamic Branding & Styling**: Custom configuration via database settings:
+  - Custom Brand Name and Logo Icons/Images.
+  - Dynamically adjustable **Primary Theme Color** (calculates light/dark relative luminance dynamically on page load to adjust contrast and prevent styling issues).
+- **Admin Profile**: Manage administrator information and securely update passwords.
 
-## Learn More
+---
 
-To learn more about Next.js, take a look at the following resources:
+## Tech Stack & Architecture
 
-- [Next.js Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs) - learn about Next.js features and API.
-- [Learn Next.js](https://nextjs.org/learn) - an interactive Next.js tutorial.
+- **Frontend & Backend**: Next.js 14.2.x (React Server Components, App Router).
+- **Database ORM**: Prisma Client v7.8.0.
+- **Database**: MySQL 8.0.
+- **Database Driver Adapter**: `@prisma/adapter-mariadb` (MariaDB node-driver compatibility layer).
+- **Security & Session**: HTTP-Only Cookie-based JWT tokens (`jose`) with password verification hashed via `bcryptjs`.
+- **Containerization**: Multi-stage `Dockerfile` and `docker-compose.yml` for isolated production-ready orchestration.
 
-You can check out [the Next.js GitHub repository](https://github.com/vercel/next.js) - your feedback and contributions are welcome!
+---
 
-## Deploy on Vercel
+## Production Deployment & Orchestration
 
-The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the [Vercel Platform](https://vercel.com/new?utm_medium=default-template&filter=next.js&utm_source=create-next-app&utm_campaign=create-next-app-readme) from the creators of Next.js.
+The application is fully containerized. A robust, non-blocking Next.js build configuration ensures that all dynamic pages are statically ignored at build-time using a dummy mock Prisma adapter, bypassing database query timeouts entirely.
 
-Check out our [Next.js deployment documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/deploying) for more details.
+### Requirements
+- Docker and Docker Compose installed.
+
+### Setup and Running the Application
+
+1. **Clone and Navigate**:
+   ```bash
+   git clone <repository_url>
+   cd travel-antarkota
+   ```
+
+2. **Launch Container Services**:
+   Start the MySQL database and Next.js application in background mode:
+   ```bash
+   docker compose up -d --build
+   ```
+
+3. **Database Auto-Orchestration**:
+   - The Next.js container automatically executes `docker-entrypoint.sh` on startup.
+   - It performs a TCP healthcheck to wait until MySQL is fully initialized.
+   - It executes `prisma db push` to synchronize tables.
+   - It checks and seeds initial system settings and creates the default administrator:
+     - **Admin Email**: `admin@travel.com`
+     - **Admin Password**: `admin123`
+
+4. **Accessing the App**:
+   - **User Frontend**: [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)
+   - **Admin Dashboard**: [http://localhost:3000/admin](http://localhost:3000/admin) (Log in using the default admin credentials).
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+Secrets and settings are managed strictly through environment variables inside `docker-compose.yml`:
+- `JWT_SECRET`: Secret key used for signing session JSON Web Tokens.
+- `ADMIN_EMAIL`: Initial admin account email created during database seeding.
+- `ADMIN_PASSWORD`: Initial admin account password.
+
+All database transactions, session management, and image uploads (stored as persistent base64 long-text entries in MySQL) are self-contained and run out of the box with zero external configuration requirements.
