Introduction:
The Online Shop Management System is a web-based platform designed to facilitate the
seamless buying and selling of products. It allows users to browse and purchase items, manage
their shopping carts, and process payments securely. The system also includes a user
management module for registration, login, and authentication, ensuring secure transactions.

Project Scope:
● For Customers: Users can browse products by category, add items to their shopping
cart, review product details, and complete purchases using various payment methods.
They can also view their order history and track deliveries.
● For Admins: Admins can manage the product catalog, monitor customer orders, and
handle user accounts through a dedicated admin interface.
● The system will support secure payments, product reviews, and offer a scalable
architecture capable of handling high traffic.
