 Abstract
This report outlines the design, development, and
implementation of a cross-platform eCommerce application
using Flutter, a popular UI toolkit by Google. The primary
objective of this project was to create a highly responsive,
feature-rich, and user-friendly mobile shopping platform that
caters to both iOS and Android users. Leveraging Flutter's
efficient framework, the app was developed with a single
codebase, significantly reducing development time and costs
while maintaining high-quality performance across devices.

Key functionalities implemented include user authentication,

product catalog browsing, search functionality, shopping cart
management, order processing, and payment gateway
integration. The report also highlights the backend integration
with Firebase for real-time data management, enabling efficient
handling of user data, product inventory, and order details.
Additionally, the application employs REST APIs to ensure
secure and seamless communication between the frontend and
backend systems.

Throughout the development process, a strong emphasis was

placed on delivering an intuitive user interface, optimizing
loading times, and ensuring scalability for future enhancements.
Testing and debugging were conducted iteratively to address
potential issues and improve overall application reliability. The
report concludes by assessing the project outcomes, discussing
challenges encountered, and suggesting future upgrades to
enhance user experience and meet evolving market demands.

 Introduction

1.1. PROJECT OVERVIEW:

ShopHolic ecommerce app is a one stop

shopping and selling solution for its users. Not
only it allows users to shop from a variety of
products but also sale products on the platform.
It has a vast application in different fields of
products so that the user can efficiently buy and
sell things on it.

1.2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

ShopHolic ecommerce app is a platform where the consumers

of the application and not only buy things but also cancel
their own products. It allows its users to have their own shop
on the platform and sell things, and at the same time
purchasing products from other consumers who are also
selling their products on the platform.

It has open sections of categories nothing is predefined so the

user can are their products in a free manner. It is a free
platform for individual users who are willing to start their
business. So here they can add the products that they produce
and check the customer response and also gain consumer
market.

It has a centralized database that is solely conducted by the

administration section of the application. The administrator
has the full control of what is to be added to the application
database. The product submitted by the user for sale has to go
through administrators approval. If the administrator doesn’t
accept the submitted product for any reason the product will
not be up for sale. So there is a very less probability of any
sort of fraud.

10
 Data Base Schema
Firebase is a NoSQL database developed by Google, designed for
real-time data synchronization and offline capabilities, making it
ideal for web and mobile applications. It stores data in a flexible,
JSON-like format, allowing for complex data structures.
Firebase's real-time sync ensures users always have the latest
information without needing refreshes. Robust security rules
provide fine-grained access control. Additionally, Firebase
seamlessly integrates with other Firebase services like
authentication, cloud messaging, and analytics, simplifying
development and enhancing functionality. Overall, Firebase
offers a powerful, scalable solution for modern application
development.

11
 Software Requirement and Specifications
The users you can log in to their profile on the platform buy the
login screen which is shown when the application is loaded. If
the user is not registered to the platform yet they can restore
themselves on the platform by clicking on restart now in the
login window.

They can fill up the required fields in the registration window

and register themselves onto the platform. Once the user is
registered the details of the user is added to the database and
also sure on his profile on the platform.

The user can add their product for submission in the add item
window by filling up the required fields in there. The admin
approves the product that has been submitted, the product will
be shown on the platform and the user who added it will also see
it in his user product window in the platform. But if the product
is rejected by the admin, it will not be shown at any of the
places. The user can search his desired product in the search
window, and custom the search results in the available sorting
formats.

The cart can be managed by the user. If an item is added to the

cart the user must mention the quantity of the product that he
wants before adding it to the cart. They can delete the item from
the cart or edit the amount that they want to purchase in the cart.
They can click on the buy now icon and move to the checkout
window and choose the payment method as their convenience
and place the order. If the location access is given to the
application the order can be tracked otherwise it will only show
whether the order is accepted or not.

The payment gateway is handled by Razor Pay. The user can

12
security do their payment for the product that they have
purchased.

The user dashboard has a very user friendly interface that can
easily guide the user to their desired window from where they
can carry out their intended operation.

In the admin panel the admin again adds products by

themselves. They can also manage the products that are
available on the platform and edit their details. They also have
permission to delete a product from the database they have
access to it. They can reject or accept a product that has been
submitted by a user to be added for sale on the platform.

 Data Flow Diagram
A data flow diagram (DFD) is a graphical
representation of the "flow" of data through an
information system, modelling its process aspects.
A DFD is often used as a preliminary step to create
an overview of the system, which can later be
elaborated.
DFDs can also be used for the visualization of
data processing (structured design).

A DFD shows what kind of information will be

input to and outputfrom the system, where the
data will come from and go to, and where the
data will be stored. It does not show information
about the timing of process or information about
whether processes will operate in sequence or in
parallel (which is shown on a flowchart).

This context-level DFD is next "exploded", to

produce a Level 1 DFD that shows some of the
detail of the system being modeled. The Level 1
DFD shows how the system is divided into sub-
systems (processes), each of whi1ch deals with one
or more of the data flows to or from an external
agent, and which together provide all of the
functionality of the system as a whole. It also
identifies internal data stores that must be present in
order for the system to do its job, and shows the
flow of data between the various parts of the
system.

Data flow diagrams are one of the three essential

perspectives of the structured-systems analysis and
design method SSADM. The sponsorof a project
and the end users will need to be briefed and
consulted throughout all stages of a system's

15
evolution. With a data flow diagram, users are able
to visualize how the system will operate, what the
system will accomplish, and how the system will
be implemented. The old system's dataflow
diagrams can be drawn up and compared with the
new system's data flow diagrams to draw
comparisons to implement a more efficient system.
Data flow diagrams can be used to provide the end
user with a physical idea of where the data they
input ultimately has an effect upon the structure of
the whole system from order to dispatch to report.
How any system is developed can be determined
through a data flowdiagram model.

In the course of developing a set of leveled data

flow diagrams the analyst/designer is forced to
address how the system may be decomposed into
component sub-systems, and to identify the
transaction data in the data model.

Data flow diagrams can be used in both Analysis

and Design phase of the SDLC.

There are different notations to draw data flow

diagrams. defining different visual
representations for processes, data
stores, data flow, and external entities.

16
DFD NOTATION:

17
Steps to Construct Data Flow Diagram:-

Four Steps are generally used to construct a DFD.

 Process should be named and referred for
easy reference. Eachname should be
representative of the reference.
 The destination of flow is from top to
bottom and from left toright.
 When a process is distributed into lower
level details they are numbered.
 The names of data stores, sources and
destinations are writtenin capital letters.

Rules for constructing a Data Flow Diagram:-

 Arrows should not cross each other.
 Squares, Circles, Files must bear a name.
 Decomposed data flow squares and
circles can have same names.
 Draw all data flow around the outside of the diagram.
