Airbnb - Booking Web app

Hey! I started this project from a YouTube video on how to make a simple crud app using the MERN stack. I added a lot of features after that. Youtube video

Some Cool features are:

• User authentication.
• Infinite Scroll and complex query.
• Third party services for image storage (cloudinary)
• Map view where you can see the nearby available places of yours.
• Booking the place.
• Typescript is used for better type safety.
