We will be adopting a MERN stack for this project, we will be using TypeScript as well.
MongoDB - This will be our database
Express - This will be used to build our backend api
React - This will be used to design our frontend
Node - This will be the language for backend api used alongside express
- Being able to assess viability of new products
- Take existing sales information for products
- This should have information required to make seasonal sales charts
- You should be able to compare charts for multiple products
- Products can be organised by tags
- This allows users to group products which are in certain categories
- Users should be able to make sub categories for multiple tags for example: mattress + orthopedic + economy (forgive the poor example)
- Scheduling feature
- This feature would streamline the process making deliveries to clients
- User can create, view, update and delete an order
- To start the backend server you will require a dotenv file the following env vars:
