phpShop

Overview

phpShop is a simple PHP based web store that allows users to browse the items and manage a simple cart.

The goal is to implement a "fully functioning" shop in PHP.

Currently, there is no support for unique users, and the set of items for sale in the shop is small and hard-coded in sample-products.json.

Components

Server

PHP backend, serves the Client files, provides REST endpoints, and interacts with the Database.

Client

Views rendered using the Laravel Blade templating engine.

Database (TODO)

Currently, this is implemented using JSON with a simple file storing system.

Data

Basic data structures

    id : 0,

        { 
            productId : 0,
            quantity: 0
        }
    ]
}

Customer : {
