REAL LARAVEL APPLICATION / TESTED LOCALLY

The attendance workflow, running.

Captured from the original Laravel application after logging in through the real authentication flow. The attendance table uses a synthetic staff member and a temporary SQLite database.

Guest redirect → synthetic login → actual attendance table. All tests ran on a loopback-only server.

This is the original application UI with a temporary synthetic database, not an external production deployment. No real employee records or credentials were used.

01 / PROJECT CONTEXT

The use case

Employee attendance involves more than a check-in button. I built application components for recording attendance, working with employee permissions and exposing reports through a Laravel web interface.

02 / HOW IT WORKS

Inside the build

The repository connects web routes, controllers, request validation and database migrations. Attendance records include timestamps, location and photo fields; permission workflows are modeled separately.

01 / Web routes and feature boundariesInspect code ↗
routes/web.php

Maps attendance, permission, employee and reporting endpoints and applies authentication middleware to selected employee routes.

02 / Attendance request handlingInspect code ↗
app/Http/Controllers/AttendanceController.php

Contains photo/location input validation, check-in/check-out flow, date filtering and PDF-oriented reporting methods.

03 / Request and approval workflowInspect code ↗
app/Http/Controllers/PermissionController.php

Handles employee permission submissions and a status-update path with request validation.

04 / Persisted attendance data modelInspect code ↗
database/migrations/2024_06_27_091646_create_attendances_table.php

Shows date/time, status, location and photo columns used to represent records in the database.

05 / Testing baselineInspect code ↗
tests/Feature/ExampleTest.php

Includes a foundational Laravel feature smoke test, providing a starting point for deeper workflow and authorization tests.

04 / ENGINEERING HIGHLIGHTS

What I built into it

  • Connected routes, forms, controllers and relational persistence into one operational workflow.
  • Modeled check-in, check-out, employee permissions and reporting as separate concerns.
  • Identified the difference between code presence and operational proof: coverage and access controls require additional verification.
05 / PROJECT STATUS

Current stage

Laravel application prototype with public source and a basic framework smoke test. Production deployment would include targeted workflow tests and a complete role/authorization review.
