Juice e-commerce app
This was my final course project I did at AFPA in 2019 for my web and mobile web developer qualification (equivalent to a Foundation Degree in the EQF). We had to code from scratch an e-commerce site using MVC and Object Oriented Programming.
Project Purpose and Goal
I decided to do a Juice e-commerce app as I had just closed my own Juice company and thus had all the marketing images.

Webstack and explanation
The e-commerce site was coded using in part the code from a blog we had written in class in PHP with a Bootstrap template for the front-end and a MySQL database. The PHP was linked to the database using SQL and I used PHPMyAdmin and WAMP.
Lessons learnt
I learnt a lot about the MVC way of building apps in this project. I also learnt a great deal about PHP and how to get a front end to interact with a database. It gave me a good overview of how apps used to be built before the advent of PHP frameworks like Laravel (which I got to use for 4 months for my OKOS Partners internship) or Symfony as our teacher was a bit old school.
