PROJECT DEVELOPED BY A TEAM - done at soyHenry's Bootcamp

PF-E-commerce

This is our final project which allowed us to end soyHENRY's Bootcamp and say that we are FULL STACK DEVELOPERS.
The project's goal was to make easer and faster selling high level electronics using an online platform and multiply sells.

Once you click in the link you should wait kind of 10 seconds until the site/data is loaded. If it does not work try refreshing the page several time. Then you can try this app as you wish as an user only.
Should you have any inconvenience, please let me know.

Build an E-commerce using React, Redux, Node, Express and Sequelize - PostgreSQL.
Use and practice all concepts learned in the soyHENRY's Bootcamp.
Learn better coding practices.
Learn and practice GIT's workflow, SCRUM and project management tools like TRELLO.
Use authentication processes and payment methods suchs as MercadoPago.

The main idea was to create an application which would allow the user to:

see all products the store offers
see relevant information of each product
add products to they wishlist
buy products in simple steps
add information about themselves: addresses, payment methods, name/lastname/phone number
get newsletters from the store
be in touch with any branch by using whatsapp

In the case of an admin it will allow to:

As part of the development team I learned:
- a new way to organize and how to process information in the Backend, creating functionalities that until now I did not know were possible to do,
- spread the code in several files to easy read it and find bugs or use the same path/route to GET different amount of information was mindblowing,
- keep each State in the Redux's Store updated each time a request was performed so one can see changes in no time was something revealing,
- use several files for actions and reducers in order to make it easier to follow the flow is something I will use from now on.
I participated:
- creating routes and their functionalities,
- coding some complex site's functionalities that required to be envolved in the Frontend as well as in the Backend, for example:
  - any user can update information about Name, Lastname, Phone number and Birthdate: I developed the entire code for this action (Front and Back End),
  - an admin can See, Add or Delete any category the store / products require: I developed the entire code for this action (Front and Back End),
  - coded part of the seeder that allowed the e-commerce to show LATAM countries,
  - did QA / QC controls when Pull Request where performed by others. This was one of the most satisfying processes I performed.

...see a list of orders and filter / sort / find any particular one.
...see / update products' data.
...see / update branches' data.
...see / add / delete categories.
...see / add / delete countries where the company has branches and/or sell products to.
...manage the stock.
...change any order's status and follow the life cicle.
...change the status of any user to admin or viceversa.
...ban any admin or user.
...notify any user via newsletter when a product is available.
...see the history of all the emails sent via newsletter.
...admin. emails sent (frecuency, templates, etc...) and which user or users are targeted.

...see and move around the e-commerce's site.
...refresh the page or go away and come back and still have the cart with products already selected.
...edit or buy the same cart after loging in.
...create an account and enjoy user's benefits.
