This project is the backend for a mobile app prototype for an existing e-commerce collectibles business. The user can access an index of products and choose from which they want to purchase. The user can log in, add an item to their cart, and place an order. The user can also view an item in a single page view. Each time the user logs on to the web application, their session is logged.

The DB created for this app was built using Ruby on Rails. I wanted to create something that was easy to read and is very user friendly. I wanted to create this app for an existing e-commerce collectibles so that the website was easily accessible for customers and their experience was improved. This application will allow the user to log in to their account, view the product inventory, choose a product and add it to their cart. Once they have added the item to their cart, they can then place the order. Once the order is placed it will then show under their Orders page.
