GOAL of this project

Post by Stevyn » Tue Apr 20, 2021 9:20 am

The goal: provide a small, simple, smooth database for cataloging book collections using modern methods (barcode scan, isbn lookups, etc) and easy e-commerce online selling platform.

I have owned a small used bookshop for 18 years and have tried out os-commerce, zencart, opencart and not happy with the bloated software not designed for my needs. omg!:

Re-invent the wheel? Perhaps yay!:

My needs: catalog books, comics, zines, records, cds and odd collectibles like old car license plates...

I need English and Japanese (to start)

DATABASE: 1st step is to build the database with an easy & quick entry process for me to add new items and edit. Needs to work smoothly on mobile phone. Plan is to streamline and automate as much as possible so I can quickly enter books.

ONLINE CATALOG BROWSING: Easy experience for the customer. Bootstrap for the css/graphics as its uniform, modern, easy and looks good on mobile phone or desktop.

PAYMENT:

SHIPPING:

NEWSLETTER: allow visitor to sign up for newsletter to receive updates.
