Stellar Shoes
Web Development Capstone Project
Stellar Shoes is a fictional business that specializes in men's shoes. The product made for them is a public facing e-commerce website as well as a company innerweb.
Customers can purchase shoes and track their orders. Employees can use an administrative side of the site to maintain store inventory, track customer orders and receive announcements.
I completed this project with two other students. My role involved front-end development as well as designing the overall look and feel of the site. We completed this application 100% remotely as a final capstone project for Columbus State's computer science degree.
