authentication:\n\n```typescript\n// Token generation\nconst token = jwt.sign(\n  { userId: user._id, email: user.email, role: user.role },\n  process.env.JWT_SECRET!,\n  { expiresIn: process.env.JWT_EXPIRES_IN }\n);\n\n// Token verification middleware\nconst verifyToken = (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) =\u003e {\n  const token = req.cookies.auth_token;\n  if (!token) {\n    return res.status(401).json({ message: \"Access denied\" });\n  }\n\n  try {\n    const decoded = jwt.verify(token, process.env.JWT_SECRET!);\n    req.userId = decoded.userId;\n    next();\n  } catch (error) {\n    res.status(401).json({ message: \"Invalid token\" });\n  }\n};\n```\n\n### Role-based Access Control\n\nDifferent user roles have different permissions:\n\n- **User**: Can book hotels, view their bookings\n- **Hotel Owner**: Can manage their hotels, view analytics\n- **Admin**: Full access to all features\n\n```typescript\n// Role verification middleware\nconst requireRole = (roles: string[]) =\u003e {\n  return (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) =\u003e {\n    if (!roles.includes(req.userRole)) {\n      return res.status(403).json({ message: \"Insufficient permissions\" });\n    }\n    next();\n  };\n};\n```\n\n---\n\n## 💳 Payment Integration\n\n### Stripe Integration\n\nThe application integrates with Stripe for secure payment processing:\n\n```typescript\n// Create payment intent\nconst paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({\n  amount: totalCost * 100, // Convert to cents\n  currency: \"usd\",\n  metadata: {\n    hotelId,\n    userId,\n    bookingId,\n  },\n});\n\n// Payment confirmation\nconst confirmPayment = await stripe.paymentIntents.confirm(paymentIntentId, {\n  payment_method: paymentMethodId,\n});\n```\n\n### Payment Flow\n\n1. User selects hotel and dates\n2. System calculates total cost\n3. Stripe payment intent is created\n4. User completes payment\n5. Booking is confirmed\n6. Confirmation email is sent\n\n---\n\n## 🔍 Search \u0026 Filtering\n\n### Advanced Search Implementation\n\nThe search system supports multiple filtering options:\n\n```typescript\n// Search query building\nconst buildSearchQuery = (searchParams: SearchParams) =\u003e {\n  const query: any = {};\n\n  if (searchParams.destination) {\n    query.$or = [\n      { city: { $regex: searchParams.destination, $options: \"i\" } },\n      { country: { $regex: searchParams.destination, $options: \"i\" } },\n      { name: { $regex: searchParams.destination, $options: \"i\" } },\n    ];\n  }\n\n  if (searchParams.maxPrice) {\n    query.pricePerNight = { $lte: parseInt(searchParams.maxPrice) };\n  }\n\n  if (searchParams.facilities?.length) {\n    query.facilities = { $all: searchParams.facilities };\n  }\n\n  if (searchParams.types?.length) {\n    query.type = { $in: searchParams.types };\n  }\n\n  return query;\n};\n```\n\n### Filter Components\n\nReusable filter components for different criteria:\n\n```typescript\n// Price Filter Component\nconst PriceFilter = ({ onPriceChange }: PriceFilterProps) =\u003e {\n  const [priceRange, setPriceRange] = useState([0, 1000]);\n\n  return (\n    \u003cdiv className=\"space-y-2\"\u003e\n      \u003clabel className=\"text-sm font-medium\"\u003ePrice Range\u003c/label\u003e\n      \u003cSlider\n        value={priceRange}\n        onChange={setPriceRange}\n        min={0}\n        max={1000}\n        step={10}\n      /\u003e\n      \u003cdiv className=\"flex justify-between text-xs text-gray-500\"\u003e\n        \u003cspan\u003e£{priceRange[0]}\u003c/span\u003e\n        \u003cspan\u003e£{priceRange[1]}\u003c/span\u003e\n      \u003c/div\u003e\n    \u003c/div\u003e\n  );\n};\n```\n\n---\n\n## 📊 Analytics Dashboard\n\n### Real-time Analytics\n\nThe analytics dashboard provides comprehensive insights:\n\n```typescript\n// Analytics data structure\ninterface AnalyticsData {\n  overview: {\n    totalRevenue: number;\n    totalBookings: number;\n    averageRating: number;\n    occupancyRate: number;\n  };\n  trends: {\n    revenue: RevenueData[];\n    bookings: BookingData[];\n    ratings: RatingData[];\n  };\n  topPerformers: {\n    hotels: HotelAnalytics[];\n    destinations: DestinationAnalytics[];\n  };\n  forecasts: {\n    revenue: ForecastData[];\n    bookings: ForecastData[];\n  };\n}\n```\n\n### Chart Components\n\nInteractive charts using Recharts library:\n\n```typescript\n// Revenue Chart Component\nconst RevenueChart = ({ data }: { data: RevenueData[] }) =\u003e {\n  return (\n    \u003cResponsiveContainer width=\"100%\" height={300}\u003e\n      \u003cLineChart data={data}\u003e\n        \u003cCartesianGrid strokeDasharray=\"3 3\" /\u003e\n        \u003cXAxis dataKey=\"date\" /\u003e\n        \u003cYAxis /\u003e\n        \u003cTooltip /\u003e\n        \u003cLine\n          type=\"monotone\"\n          dataKey=\"revenue\"\n          stroke=\"#8884d8\"\n          strokeWidth={2}\n        /\u003e\n      \u003c/LineChart\u003e\n    \u003c/ResponsiveContainer\u003e\n  );\n};\n```\n\n---\n\n## 🧪 Testing\n\n### End-to-End Testing\n\nThe project includes comprehensive E2E tests using Playwright:\n\n```bash\n# Run E2E tests\ncd e2e-tests\nnpm install\nnpm test\n```\n\n### Test Structure\n\n```typescript\n// Example test: Hotel search functionality\ntest(\"should search hotels with filters\", async ({ page }) =\u003e {\n  await page.goto(\"/search\");\n\n  // Fill search form\n  await page.fill('[data-testid=\"destination-input\"]', \"London\");\n  await page.selectOption('[data-testid=\"adult-count\"]', \"2\");\n  await page.click('[data-testid=\"search-button\"]');\n\n  // Verify results\n  await expect(page.locator('[data-testid=\"hotel-card\"]')).toHaveCount(5);\n});\n```\n\n### Test Coverage\n\n- Authentication flows\n- Hotel search and filtering\n- Booking process\n- Hotel management\n- Analytics dashboard\n- API endpoints\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Deployment\n\n### Backend Deployment (Railway/Heroku)\n\n1. **Prepare for deployment:**\n\n```bash\ncd hotel-booking-backend\nnpm run build\n```\n\n2. **Environment variables setup:**\n\n   -
