General info

This project is my first attempt at making a full-stack application. Node was the technology of choice here for the backend which further improved my understanding of JS. This is a full fledged e-commerce site for books. People can create an account and look at all their orders. This also has admin features built-in which can be accessed by signing in with an admin account. An Admin can add, edit or remove books and can also access a list of all orders.

Technologies

• NodeJs
• Express
• React
• Redux
• MongoDB (mongoose)
• Styled-Components
• Material-UI
• GSAP (animations)
• PayPal SDK
• JWT (auth)
• Axios
