The Checkout Process

[bradwestfall]

This includes lots of things:

• The whole checkout page
• We need to have a billing and shipping form - this would be good for a lesson on controlled/uncontrolled state we used to do in our old curriculum
• Maybe a mock credit card form with a specific number that succeeds and one that fails the submission
• If we want to take it far, we can even clear the cart, deduct inventory from the database, and then even have UI for showing "out of stock"

I'm almost done with this

If we really want the credit card stuff to "work" or validate things, it's pretty quick to implement the Luhn algo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm
(but this might be overkill)

Yea I was thinking it might be best to have a pseudo checkout process. The forms are duds and at the end it just clears the cart and says "Your order is on its way".

Although I was thinking about adding some of your order info do the database so we can have a "my order history" when your logged in. As of now, there's not much to do when you're logged in

Maybe we'll finish this later, not necessary for the workshop material
