Bamazon is a simple storefront app using MySQL and Node.js.
Let's get started ...
First we'll go over the Bamazon Customer App ...
Upon loading the Bamazon Customer App, you will be greeted with a table displaying the available items for purchase:
The headers of the table are as follows:
- Product's ID
- Product's Name
- Product's Department
- Product's Price
- Product's Quantity
Below the graph you will receive your first prompt, which asks for the numeric Product ID of the item you would like to purchase ...
This prompt contains validation; only correct product IDs will be accepted!
After entering a product ID, you will be asked to enter a quantity ...
This prompt contains validation; only numeric values will be accepted!
Once a quantity is entered, your order will be processed, a message will appear thanking you for your order, and a receipt will be generated.
The receipt consists of a unique receipt ID, the name, price, quantity of the item that was purchased, and the total of the purchase:
Under the receipt an updated table displaying the available items for purchase will display. This table will display the updated quantity of the item purchased:
At this point you will return to the beginning step of the Bamazon Customer App.
