📦 Download & Install

1. Visit the Releases Page: Go to the Releases page to find the latest version.

3. Extract the Files: Once downloaded, unzip the file to a folder on your computer.

4. Set Up the Web Server:

   • If you use a local server like XAMPP or MAMP, move the unzipped files to the server's root directory (htdocs for XAMPP or Applications/MAMP/htdocs for MAMP).
   • For a live server, upload the files to your web hosting provider's server using an FTP client.

5. Create a Database:

   • Access your MySQL interface (like phpMyAdmin).
   • Create a new database for eCommerce. Remember the name, as you will need it later.

6. Configure the Application:

   • Locate the .env file in your unzipped folder.
   • Update the database connection settings to match your database credentials:
     • DB_HOST: usually localhost
     • DB_NAME: the name of the database you just created
     • DB_USER: your MySQL username
     • DB_PASSWORD: your MySQL password

7. Run the Installer:

   • Open your web browser.
   • Type in http://localhost/eCommerce (replace eCommerce with the folder name if you renamed it).
   • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

8. Access Your Store: After installation, you can visit your store at the same URL. Use the admin credentials you set up during installation to access the dashboard.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

If you face any issues, consider the following steps:

• Check PHP Extensions: Ensure all required PHP extensions are enabled, such as mysqli, curl, and mbstring.
• File Permissions: Make sure your web server has access to the eCommerce files.
• Review Logs: Check the server logs for error messages that can provide hints.
