Navbar


Navbar

The navbar is displayed on every page, and dynamically displays the user's login status, and if logged in, the number of items in the shopping cart. It is done by gathering session status from state, as well as updating cart items in the state whenever the cart is modified.


{!!this.props.currentUserId ? (
            
              
{cartIcon}{" "} {this.state.cartQty !== 0 ? (

{this.state.cartQty}

) : null}
) : (
{cartIcon}
)}

Product categories on the navbar each lead to corresponding product result pages.

Upon clicking the search bar, a popup will appear with search suggestions. Clicking on a search suggestion will automatically pre-fill the search bar with the search term, and then initate the search.

Cart



Each item in the user's cart is passed into a CartItemBar component, which displays the individual item along with information such as its seller, quantity, and price.

 
{cartItems.map((cartItem, idx) => {
                        return (
                          
                        );
                      })}
