# QR Code-Based Attendance System
## Project Description
The QR Code-Based Attendance System is a robust attendance management solution developed using PHP and MySQL. The system supports three roles: Admin, Teacher, and Student, each with distinct functionalities to ensure efficient and secure attendance tracking in educational institutions.
### Key Features:
- **Admin Role**:
- Add, view, and edit students, teachers, and timetables.
- View and manage all attendance records, including the ability to manually mark attendance in case of scanning issues.
- Manage attendance data for multiple classes, semesters, and batches.
- **Teacher Role**:
- Generate QR codes for attendance for allocated classes, semesters, and batches.
- View attendance records for their classes.
- **Student Role**:
- Mark attendance by scanning the QR code generated by the teacher during the lecture.
- View their attendance records.
### Advanced Security Features:
- **IP Address Restriction**: Only one attendance is allowed per student per IP address to prevent multiple submissions.
- **Proxy & VPN Prevention**: Attendance marking is restricted to ensure that students cannot use proxies or VPNs.
- **Location Verification**: Attendance can only be marked if the student is within the allowed campus radius, ensuring the student is physically present on campus.
- **Time-Sensitive Attendance**: QR codes are valid only during the lecture time, adding another layer of security.
## Live Demo
Check out the live demo of the project [here](https://sagarbhoi.in/project-demos/qr-code-attendance-system/).
## Technologies Used
- **PHP**: Server-side scripting language used for backend development.
- **MySQL**: Database management system for storing user, attendance, and timetable data.
- **Bootstrap**: Frontend framework for responsive design and layout.
- **jQuery**: JavaScript library for DOM manipulation and event handling.
- **DataTables**: jQuery plugin for enhancing HTML tables with pagination, search, and sorting features.
- **Font Awesome**: Icon library used for adding visual elements to the UI.
## Installation
### Prerequisites:
- A web server with PHP and MySQL support (e.g., XAMPP, WAMP, LAMP).
- A MySQL database.
### Steps:
1. **Clone the repository**:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/SagarBhoi404/qr-code-attendance-system.git
cd qr-code-attendance-system
```
2. **Setup MySQL Database**:
- Create a new database named `qrattendance`.
- Import the SQL file provided in the `database.sql` directory to set up the necessary tables.
3. **Configure the Application**:
- Create a `.env` file in the root directory and add the following:
```env
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_USER=root
DB_PASS=123
DB_NAME=qrattendance
```
4. **Deploy the Application**:
- Place the project files in your web server's root directory (e.g., `htdocs` for XAMPP).
- Access the application via your browser at `http://localhost/qr-code-attendance-system`.
5. **Default Admin Credentials**:
- **Username**: `admin`
- **Password**: `123`
## Usage
1. **Admin Panel**: Log in as an admin to manage students, teachers, timetables, and attendance records.
2. **Teacher Portal**: Teachers can log in to generate QR codes for their classes and view attendance.
3. **Student Portal**: Students log in to scan QR codes during lectures and view their attendance history.
