## Project Title
**EcoBin - Smart Garbage Management System**
---
## 🚩 Problem Statement
We identified several problems in traditional waste management systems:
- Inefficient waste management leading to environmental damage.
- Lack of real-time data on bin fill levels for optimizing collection routes.
- High operational costs due to unnecessary pickups and inefficient routes.
- Low recycling rates and inadequate data on waste generation.
- Unreliable service with missed pickups or overflowing bins, causing pollution and sanitary issues.
---
## 🎯 Objectives
EcoBin addresses these challenges with the following objectives:
- **Efficient Garbage Sorting**: Automates the sorting of waste based on sensor detection.
- **Optimized Collection Routes**: Real-time fill level data enables dynamic route planning.
- **Improved Service**: Timely alerts prevent overflowing bins, improving sanitation.
- **Cost Reduction**: Optimized routes reduce fuel consumption, trucks, and manpower.
- **Data-Driven Insights**: Analyze waste generation patterns to optimize waste management.
- **Environmental Impact**: Reduced greenhouse gas emissions through efficient operations.
- **User Engagement**: Notify users about nearby available garbage bins via the mobile app.
- **Reporting & Analytics**: Provide reports for administrators and users on waste disposal patterns.
---
## 🚀 Key Features
- **Real-Time Bin Monitoring**: Sensors in the bins provide real-time data on fill levels.
- **Automated Waste Sorting**: Intelligent system sorts waste into paper, plastic, metal, etc.
- **Optimized Collection Routes**: Trucks are directed to pick up only full bins, saving fuel and reducing emissions.
- **Mobile and Web Accessibility**: Monitor bin levels, locate nearby bins, and manage waste disposal via web and mobile apps.
- **User Notifications**: Mobile notifications inform users when their bins will be emptied.
- **Reporting and Analytics**: Weekly or monthly reports are generated for users and administrators.

# 🌍 EcoBin | 💻 Web Application | 🚀 Run The Project
---
## 🚀 Getting Started
Follow the steps below to set up and run the project locally after cloning the repository.
---
### 🛠️ Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:
- **Node.js** (v12 or later) installed on your machine.
- **npm** (comes with Node.js) or **yarn** installed as the package manager.
- A code editor (such as [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/)).
---
### 🛠️ Installation
#### 1. 📥 Clone the Repository
To clone the EcoBin project, open your terminal and run:
```bash
git clone [email protected]:MenathNDGD/EcoBin_Website.git
```
```bash
cd EcoBin_Website
```
---
#### 2. 📦 Install Dependencies
To install the necessary project dependencies, run:
```bash
npm install
```
This will install all the packages listed in the package.json file.
---
### 🌐 Running the Website
#### 1. 🚀 Start the Development Server
After the installation, you can start the React development server by running:
```bash
npm start
```
This will launch the development server, and you can view the application by visiting:
```bash
http://localhost:3000
```
The website should now be running locally. If the port 3000 is already in use, you may be prompted to use another port (e.g., 3001).
---
#### 2. 📈 Build for Production
To create an optimized production build of the website, run:
```bash
npm run build
```
or
```bash
npm start
```
This will bundle the app into static files in the build directory, which you can then deploy to any static hosting service.
---
### 📝 Breakdown of Steps:
- **Clone the Repository**: The instructions guide users to clone the repository and navigate into the project directory.
- **Install Dependencies**: Users are directed to install the necessary project dependencies via `npm install`.
- **Run the Website**: The instructions detail how to start the local development server using `npm start` and view the website at `http://localhost:3000`.
- **Build for Production**: Users are shown how to generate a production build with `npm run build`.
This `README.md` should serve as a clear guide for anyone looking to run the website locally.
