- Complete E-Commerce Platform β from database to application
- Database Design β products, customers, orders, reviews
- CRUD Operations β create, read, update, delete
- Analytics β sales reports, customer insights
- Best Practices β security, performance, code organization
Project Overview
We're building a complete E-Commerce platform called "ShopHub". This application will handle:
Product Management
Add, update, search, and list products
Customer Management
Register, login, and manage customers
Order Processing
Create orders, update status, track
Reviews & Ratings
Customer reviews and ratings
Analytics Dashboard
Sales reports, customer insights
Inventory Management
Stock tracking and updates

Database design key points:
- Primary keys β unique identifiers for each table
- Foreign keys β relationships between tables
- Indexes β speed up common queries
- Data types β appropriate types for each column
Quick Check: What is the purpose of indexes in a database? (Answer: To speed up queries by making searches faster)
