Shopping Cart PHP

Question

How can one create a shopping cart for E-Commerce Website using PHP and SQL

Answer 1

In a basic sense, you'd write all the stuff that the user/customer uses/sees with PHP and link that to all the behind the scenes information: products, specials etc using SQL.

Any more information required, I'd recommend doing the courses here and looking online.

Answer 2

There are many modules to create an e-commerce website such as login authentication, customer, store owner and product management, order and add to cart, shipping module, etc.

The main key and backbone of an e-commerce website is the database, which requires a comprehensive database solution that includes different types of tables with relational foreign keys to link the data between tables.

The code below will show you the data flow of a very simple add to cart/order database workflow.

The complete e-commerce website is not possible to present on Code Playground because there is no interactive client and server activity here.
