Simple Online Store

In the Product Landing Page project you implemented a landing page to provide your users with information about a product and to hopefully increase your sites conversion rate.

The goal of the Simple Online Store is to give your users the capability of selecting a product to purchase, viewing purchase information, adding it to an online shopping cart, and finally, actually purchasing the products in the shopping cart.

Constraints​

  • Starting out you may implement your product inventory as an array of Javascript objects if you are developing in Javascript. For other languages feel free to choose the in memory solution of your choice.

User Stories​

  • User can click on a View Products button on the Landing Page to display the Products Page.
  • User can see a card on the Products Page for each Product showing the product thumbnail, name, price, a short description, and a Select button.
  • User can see a Product Details page displayed when the Select button is clicked showing the same information from the product card, but also a unique product id, a long description, Add to Cart button, and a See More Products button.
  • User can see a confirmation message when the product is added to the shopping cart.
  • User can click on the See More Products page to return to the Products Page.

  • User can click on the Shopping Cart button to display the Shopping Cart page containing the product id, name, price, and quantity ordered input box for each product previously added to the Shopping Cart.
