## Overview

CultureSmart Traveler is a React cultural travel companion. Travelers browse destinations and city guidance, explore etiquette, food, experiences and maps, and can generate a tailored cultural itinerary; phrase audio and saved stories add practical support. The graph highlights the documented app composition and source-index relationships. Some README features (such as comparison, quizzes, printing and saved cities) are represented, but their runtime wiring is not shown in the excerpts, so no speculative links are drawn.

Main entry points: [`src/App.jsx`](https://github.com/parul-singh28/culturesmart-traveler/blob/main/src/App.jsx) (App shell), [`src/components/AITripPlanner.jsx`](https://github.com/parul-singh28/culturesmart-traveler/blob/main/src/components/AITripPlanner.jsx) (AI trip planner), [`src/components/TravelerStories.jsx`](https://github.com/parul-singh28/culturesmart-traveler/blob/main/src/components/TravelerStories.jsx) (Traveler stories), [`src/components/DestinationDetailModal.jsx`](https://github.com/parul-singh28/culturesmart-traveler/blob/main/src/components/DestinationDetailModal.jsx) (Destination detail)
