ABSTRACT
The Online Book Store is a web-based platform designed to streamline the process of browsing,
purchasing, and managing books online. It serves as a digital marketplace that connects book
publishers and readers through an efficient and user-friendly interface. The system incorporates
functionalities for both administrators and customers, ensuring smooth management and a
satisfying user experience.
For administrators, the system provides essential features such as secure login, listing all
available books, adding new books, editing existing book details, deleting books, and logging
out. This backend control allows seamless catalog management and efficient data updates,
which are crucial for maintaining an up-to-date inventory.
Customers or users can access a modern and responsive home page displaying the latest books
available. They can browse the entire book collection, view lists of publishers, and explore
books published by specific publishers. Each product listing includes detailed information to
help users make informed decisions.
The platform includes a dynamic shopping cart where users can add books, update item
quantities, and proceed to checkout. The checkout process includes user-friendly forms for
shipping details and payment information, ensuring a smooth transaction.
This Online Book Store system aims to create a convenient and enjoyable book-buying
experience while simplifying backend operations for administrators. It promotes reading by
making books more accessible and offers a practical alternative to traditional bookstores
through digital innovation.
