You are required to build an API for an e-commerce platform. If you have developed the other projects in this roadmap, you will have to keep in mind everything you have learned so far:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- JWT authentication to ensure many users can interact with it.
|
||
|
- Implementing simple CRUD operations.
|
||
|
- Interaction with external services. Here you’ll be integrating with payment gateways such as Stripe.
|
||
|
- A complex data model that can handle products, shopping carts, and more.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The goal of this project is to help you understand how to build a logic-heavy application with complex data models. You will also learn how to interact with external services and handle user authentication.

## Requirements
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here is a rough list of requirements for this project:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Ability for users to sign up and log in.
|
||
|
- Ability to add products to a cart.
|
||
|
- Ability to remove products from a cart.
|
||
|
- Ability to view and search for products.
|
||
|
- Ability for users to checkout and pay for products.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You should also have some sort of admin panel where only you can add products, set the prices, manage inventory, and more.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Start with building the API first and then frontend; you can use tools like Postman to interact with your API. Alternatively, build a simple frontend with HTML, CSS and some templating engine like Jinja or EJS.

This project is a great way to learn how to build a complex application with a lot of moving parts. I will highly recommend you to complete this project before moving on to more advanced projects.
