About

It's a multi-user (customer, store manager, delivery executive, developer) e-commerce app to manage a grocery store, made using Flask framework and SQLite database. It can be used to search and query products and place orders by customers, manage product inventories and different categories by the store manager, and manage deliveries by the delivery executive. The developer can use the CRUD APIs for products and categories using their private API keys. Each folder has a README.md file except static and templates folders. The ScreenFlow folder has screenshots of the website and shows the flow for all users(except developer).

Features :

1. 4 types of users: Customer, Store Manager, Delivery Executive, Developer
2. CRUD APIs for Product and Category management(flask_restx) - You can play around with the API endpoints by pasting the contents of application/APIdoc.yaml file in Swagger Editor
3. Proper authentication and authorization framework(flask-login)
4. External APIs: Stripe for online payments, Twilio for OTPs
5. Ability to search Products based on category, ratings, and various other product features
6. Product recommendation systems for customers based on their previous orders and for showing similar products of a given product based on product description.
