# Doc2PDF
## Overview
**Doc2PDF** is a full-stack application designed to convert Microsoft Word documents (`.doc` and `.docx`) into PDF format. The app is built using React.js for the frontend and Node.js with Express for the backend. It features a responsive design and supports both dark and light themes. The application uses Tailwind CSS for styling and includes various tools and libraries for development.
## Technologies Used
- **Frontend**: React.js, Tailwind CSS
- **Backend**: Node.js, Express
- **Styling**: Tailwind CSS
- **Development Tools**: Vite, Nodemon
- **Libraries**:
- `multer` (for handling file uploads)
- `docx-pdf` (for converting Word documents to PDF)

```bash
git clone https://github.com/your-username/Doc2PDF.git
cd Doc2PDF
```
2. **Install Dependencies**:
```bash
npm install
```
3. **Start the Development Server**:
```bash
npm start
```
Open your browser and navigate to `http://localhost:3000` to view the application.
### Backend
1. **Navigate to the Backend Directory** (if it's a separate directory):
```bash
cd server
```
2. **Install Dependencies**:
```bash
npm install
```
3. **Start the Server**:

3. **Convert the File**: Click on the "Convert File" button to start the conversion process.
4. **Download the PDF**: Once the conversion is complete, you will be provided with a download link for the converted PDF file.
## Configuration
- **API Endpoint**: The frontend is configured to communicate with the backend API endpoint at `http://localhost:3000/convertFile` (adjust if necessary).
## Testing
Use Postman to test the API endpoints:
- **Upload File**: `POST /convertFile` with `multipart/form-data` containing the file.
