LittlePaws Pet Food Store

Experience top-notch pet food shopping with LittlePaws, an ECommerce application built entirely using Python Django and Jinja Templates. With custom user model and cart management, explore unlimited product galleries of categories and items, and check out with ease using secure payment options. LittlePaws ensures hassle-free after-order tasks, such as inventory tracking, email notifications for received orders, cart clearing, order completion page display, and invoicing.

LittlePaws includes an interactive Review and Rating system that lets you express your thoughts on pet food products and leave star ratings and comments on products they have purchased. Customers can easily manage their accounts by editing their profile, uploading profile pictures, changing passwords, and keeping track of their orders. To ensure optimal performance, scalability and security, we deployed the application on AWS Elastic Beanstalk with RDS + Route 53. With our user-friendly interface and top-notch technology stack, customers can have a seamless shopping experience for their beloved pets' food needs.
