📚 Bookflow - A Library Manager App

This project was developed as part of the Object-Oriented Programming and Projecting (OOPP) course in the E-Business Master's program. It provides an efficient system for managing book collections in a library using Java and JavaFX. The application ensures data persistence through text and binary files, eliminating the need for a database. It emphasizes object-oriented principles, data validation and user-friendly interaction through a graphical user interface (GUI).

Features

• browse and manage the library's book collection (add, remove or delete books)
• generate reports based on:
  • Books by a specific author
  • Books in a particular category (e.g.: Computer Science)
  • Borrowed books on a given date

The system ensures:

• Data persistence using file operations
• Data integrity and validation
