Ticket to Mars Website

Welcome to the Ticket to Mars website, a fictitious platform that allows users to purchase tickets for a journey to Mars. This project combines a web server for user interaction and a gRPC client that communicates with a separate gRPC server to validate ticket purchase requests.

Prerequisites

• Go installed on your machine
• • protoc for protobuf compilation (Maybe not needed). To compile protobuf, run:

$ cd payment
$ protoc --go_out=paths=source_relative:. --go-grpc_out=paths=source_relative:. payment.proto

   The Ticket to Mars website will be accessible at http://localhost:8080/mars.

Features

• User Information Form: Users can input their name, email, ticket quantity, date, and credit card number.

• gRPC Client Integration: The web server acts as a gRPC client and communicates with the gRPC server to validate ticket purchase requests.

• Ticket Validation: Ticket purchase depends on the response from the gRPC server, which validates the user's request.
