PR Summary

• Addition of Docker and environment configuration files
  New files for Docker, xdebug, and the environment variables have been included to help fine-tune the development environment setup. This aids in maintaining a uniform development environment across all machines.

• File structure and dependency modifications
  Some outdated or unnecessary files have been removed while a few others have been updated. This is to emphasize more modern coding practices and remove old, out-of-date components.

• Database Management Improvements
  The database configuration files have been updated to receive credentials from environment variables. This helps in maintaining the security and flexibility of the database configurations.

• News Management System Implementation
  New classes for handling news-related functionalities have been added. These include creating, deleting, and retrieving news data, and other related activities. It also includes changes to handle potentially inappropriate content and manage news entries more effectively.

• Frontend Configuration with Docker
  The frontend folder has been restructured with new Docker files and environment variables. It makes for easier deployment and a more efficient development process.

• React Project Setup
  The project now uses React for its frontend, which includes a new file hierarchy for a React-based application.

• Removal of Unused Components
  Old components, views, and test files that aren't relevant to the new structure of the application have been removed. This clears up the codebase and avoids any possible confusion due to leftover legacy code.

• News Content and Handling Overhaul
  The news handling service has been entirely restructured, with new functionality for removing inappropriate content and maintaining a cleaner news feed. This helps ensure that the news feed remains user-friendly and relevant.

• Introduction of New Models
  New models for news and obscene words have been added, replacing the older ContactForm and LoginForm models.

• NewsService improvements
  Within the services/NewsService, we have introduced several new components responsible for managing, moderating, and performing CRUD operations on news items. It keeps the architecture clean and separate for easier modification, testing, and understanding.

• File Deletions
  Several files from the views, test, controllers, and widgets folder have been removed. These were unnecessary or unused in the current version of the application. Careful deletion improves the overall project organisation and clarity.

• Test Cleanup
  A few older test cases that no longer applied to this version of the application have been removed. This ensures that our test suites remain relevant and accurate.
