-  Working with the tools:
-Express Router and Cookies, Express Session and Flash, Security, mongoDB, Cloudinery, receiving and sending requests.
+## Overview
 
-A site to which you can connect if you have already registered before and if you cannot register.
-On the site you can receive reviews of camps around the world, and write reviews about them (only if you are registered and connected to the site). You can add a new camp (only if you are registered and logged in).
-The site is protected at a reasonable level against hacking (code transplants, etc.).
-The images are stored in cloudinery.
-  Working with a database using MongoDB.
+This project is a full-stack web application that allows users to view and share reviews of camps around the world. Users can register, log in, and contribute to the site by adding new camps and reviews. The site is built with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, and leverages several powerful tools and libraries, including Express, MongoDB, and Cloudinary. The application is designed with security in mind, offering protection against common vulnerabilities.
