then website will ask to add product in cart first.

CHAPTER TWO: LITERATURE REVIEW
2.0 INTRODUCTION
Literature review is an expressive study based on the detailed review of earlier pertinent
studies related to the various concepts of online shopping to discover the concept of online
shopping. It highlights the status of online shopping, importance and problems of online shopping,

factors, technical factors, social factors, cultural factors, psychological factors, marketing factors and
legislative factors. Customers choose an online-shop mainly based on references, clarity terms of
delivery, graphic design and additional services. Problematical customers read discussions on the
Internet before they spend their money on-line and when customers are incapable to purchase the
product fast and with no trouble they leave online-shop.

problems include prospect of having credit card. The obscurity to confirm the reliability of the
provide goods and the risk to buy a product that it would not value as much as customer pay for it.

warranty are not assured. Online shopping has various disadvantages:

Shopping online has never been so easy. With the flourishing numbers of online merchants,
people nowadays have various choices to do their shopping. Big companies such as eBay and
amazon.com have introduced many values added features to help the customers to decide what to
shop for. With features such as price comparison, product photos and user reviews, consumers can
shop easily and smartly without even going to the stores and having such a hard time looking for the
products they want. All they have to do are just browse for the product they want in the website
and within a few mice clicks they are off. Such simplicity is what makes online shopping appealing
for consumers. The question is, why do many people still deny to shop online? Well, for most
people, privacy and security issues are their concerns. Hence, here I will discuss customers’
perception of privacy and security issues, the reality of such issues and ways to avoid those issues,
all based on some trustworthy sources I have found.

CHAPTER THREE
3.1. Methodology
3.1.1. Introduction
This Section describes the methodology applied during the development of la BELLE
Fashions store. A methodology is a model, which project managers employ for the design,
planning, implementation and achievement of their project objectives. Effective project
management is essential in absolutely any organization, regardless of the nature of the business
and the scale of the organization. From choosing a project to right through to the end, it is
important that the project is carefully and closely managed. Based on the nature of my project
solution, it was essential to use incremental Software development life cycle (SDLC). .
3. 1. 2 Justification for the Methodology
This model can be used when the requirements of the complete system are clearly defined and
understood, like the case of this project where;
Major requirements were evidently defined; however, some details evolved with time.
There was a need to complete the project within a short time schedule.
A new technology is being used or the resources with needed skill set are not available. I
was learning Flask and Django and could iterate from one technology to another to ensure
I effective implement all the functionalities.
The project had some high-risk features and goals.
