MERN stack shopping cart

Intro

I started working on this app a while ago when I was still learning technologies used in this project, so please be aware that the codebase (and the whole app in general) isn't perfect and there is still room for improvement, even though I've updated the code multiple times over the past years.

So, consider this as a learning example or just a showcase rather than a production-quality code.

Description

Shopping cart app build with MERN stack and using RESTful API design. Responsive front-end design done with Material-UI, uses Redux for state management, Node & Express for API, MongoDB as database. App runs in Docker containers but you can also run each sub-app separately, without Docker.

You can get and view the list of all products from the API, register, add products to cart, remove specific product or empty entire cart, make order...

Technologies & Tools

Front-end:

React
Redux
Redux-Saga
Material-UI
Webpack
TypeScript

Backend:

Node/Express
MongoDB/Mongoose

Installation and Usage

Requirements:

Docker

In case you want to run it without Docker (requires additional setup):

Node.js installed
MongoDB connection

Steps:

Clone repo on your local machine:

$ git clone https://github.com/ivan3123708/fullstack-shopping-cart.git

Run docker-compose
```
$ cd fullstack-shopping-cart
$ docker-compose up -d
```
This will pull images and build 3 containers for each part of the application: frontent, backend & db.
If everything went without problems, go to localhost:3000, you should see the running app.

frontend container (React app) runs on port 3000
backend container (Node api) runs on port 5000
db container (MongoDB server) runs on port 27017

Use docker exec -it <container name> bash to troubleshoot if there are any problems.
