Note: I have joined the SASE (Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers) web dev team. Check out my more recent work here!
This project is a full stack React app built around the Stripe API that implements an online storefront to demonstrate proficiency in web development and relational databases for potential employers. The frontend is built with MaterialUI, while the backend is built with Flask. The website will be updated periodically with new pages and features when I have spare time.
- fully-functioning payment system
- account creation and management
- shopping cart
- MySQL database
Clone the project with git clone https://github.com/elliot-liu-12/e-commerce_web_app and install all dependencies. In the project directory, you can run npm start to start the frontend and python -m flask run or flask --app run --debug to start the server. Note that using the checkout function will require a .env file in the app directory with a valid Stripe test key. Once both the frontend and backend have been started, the website will function normally without any errors.
