Online Booking and Management system for Beauty Salon

The main goal of the project is to create a web application that solves the issue of appointments in a beauty salon going unfilled, due to cancellations and time constraints. The project aims to provide a service to allow clients to book/cancel/modify appointments online. A dashboard with notifications for the business owner to keep daily track of appointments/activities/cancellations.  With this small business expanding its clientele, it is harder for clients to access appointments when needed.
A web app that not only provides a service to the business owner but also to customers via the Web to book appointments.
Software/Technology to be used
I have setup a microsft azure SQL database and a webapp sevice deployment through azure. using Spring IO to bootstrap and tomcat. JDBC
Coding needed fo this project- using Visual studio code with java(latest  version) with HTML CSS (some Javascript if possible).
The webapp will allow clients to book appointments in 30min slots from 11am to 8pm Tuesday to Friday. A drop down menu for specific treatments when booking a slot(nails,brows,wax etc).  Customers will be able to view available slots on date they select.

Literature Review on Outsourcing

Literature review
Presentation and discussion of literature you have found related to your topic
I will be looking to see that you have organized the research into sub-topics or themes, and that you are able to group different pieces of research together by making links between what different authors have written.
You should also identify where there are weaknesses (e.g., where are the gaps in the literature? what information would you like to know but couldn’t find any writing about?)
You will present your literature review so that the ideas are coordinated and your paper flows well. Use headings (and sub-headings, if appropriate) to help organize your work.
use atleast 7 academic sources
A list of references, formatted using APA style (annotations are not necessary).

As a nurse, how often have you thought to yourself, If I had anything to do about it, things would work a little differently? Increasingly, nurses are beginning to realize that they do, in fact, have a role and a voice.

Many nurses encounter daily experiences that motivate them to take on an advocacy role in hopes of impacting policies, laws, or regulations that impact healthcare issues of interest. Of course, doing so means entering the less familiar world of policy and politics. While many nurses do not initially feel prepared to operate in this space effectively, the reward is the opportunity to shape and influence future health policy.

Python

Create a class called Tour.  An instance of this class is to be instantiated with two US cities, and is used to fetch information from the web.  Specifically, the class must define:

1.    __init__  The constructor takes two strings as arguments, each giving a city name and state abbreviation, indicating the origin and destination.  For example: Tour(New York, NY, Los Angeles, CA)represents a tour that starts in New York city and ends in Los Angeles.
2.    distance  This method takes a single (optional) argument indicating a mode one of the strings driving (default), biking, or walking.  It returns the total distance (in meters) covered by the tour for the indicated mode.  This method is where you will use urllib functions to get data from the web to find the distances between two locations in the tour and calculate the total distance.  If a response does not contain a distance value, the method should raise a ValueError exception.

Graphical User Interface Description:
Create a class called TourGui. An instance of this class is to be instantiated in the main. Specifically the class must define:
1.    __init__ The constructor doesnt take any arguments. The constructor creates two frames in the window, a top frame and buttom frame. The top frame contains a  label and an entry widget for the following fields: origin, destination, and mode. The bottom frame contains a label and text widget for Distance and a button widget for Get Distnace. The GUI should like the following:

2.    onClick This method is the event handler for the Get Distance Button. When the button is clicked, the origin, destination and mode fields are read, the query is made and the distance between the origin and the destination is displayed. If the user enters an invalid mode, a message box shows up indicating invalid mode was entered:

If the distance was not found between the origin and the destination, a message box shows up indicating the distance was not found:
