Description

Cozia is a versatile application that encourages entrepreneurship by allowing users to be both sellers and consumers. If users want to sell clothes but also wants to purchase clothes, they can do both through Cozia. Users can track what orders they have, and they can modify their products, the order's delivery status, and delivery date. Also, users can view what items they've purchased. If users want to terminate their account, they will be prompted to re-enter their username to delete their account.

What did you learn?

• NPM packages and versions require certain versions in order to work well with other NPMs
• We expanded our coding skills by challenging ourselves with handling difficult real world application's features such as handling server-side validations and implementing new NPM packages like stripe for payment.
• We got more practice with debugging, especially with the AWS/Heroku deployment.

What makes your project stand out?

1. Follows Mobile First Design, so it's mobile responsive.
2. Enables server-side verification for every form.
3. Uses dynamic tables where users can smoothly modify their order list through a clean modal with preloaded information.
4. Implements security verification method for deleting user's account.
5. Incorporates Stripe as a payment method when purchasing clothes. (Don't worry, no real transaction is going through when you use a fake payment information provided for demonstration.)
6. Deploys through popular services: Heroku and Amazon Web Services (AWS).

But don't take our word for it, check out our cool Cozia!

Installation

1. git clone the repository and navigate to cozia folder.
2. Run npm i in the terminal from the root.
3. Next, run npm run build and npm run seed.
4. Lastly, run npm run develop and your browser should open a new tab with http://localhost:3000.

OR you can test our app by clicking on the Heroku or AWS deployed application link (from above at the Deployed Application section).

Note: Also, create an .env in the server folder and paste this in the file:

JWT_SECRET=

STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=""

CLIENT_URL = http://localhost:3000

CLIENT_ID = 

curated_id = G1AwidaMrdQ

Instructions to set up .env file

1. For JWT_SECRET, you can insert anything.
2. For CLIENT_ID, go to Unsplash and make an account if you haven't already, and navigate to the Unsplash Developers.
3. Click on Your apps > New Application > Agree to all guidelines of the API Use and Guidelines as well as their Terms of Services.
4. Name the application, "Cozia" > put the description as "E-Commerce Apparel" > Create App.
5. Scroll down where you can see the Access Key, copy it, and paste it at CLIENT_ID

To run it on localhost, run the seeds and run the app commands in the root directory npm run seed && npm run develop.

Seeds

This application uses MongoDB and Mongoose (version 5.9.10). To see the seeds, run npm run seed in the terminal; this loads the database. To see the database, download the MongoDB app and connect to seed database called "Cozia" by pressing "Save & Connect". Afterwards, click on "Cozia" database. You now have access to the database.

Develop

By running npm run develop in the root directory, the app runs both client-side and server-side servers at the same time. Then, the app will run in the localhost:3000.
