Alternative Approach: Using Database Instead of Cookies for Session and Cart Management

In this project, an alternative approach has been implemented to manage sessions and shopping carts using the database instead of cookies. This ensures better security and scalability.

How It Works

• Session Management:

  • User sessions are stored in the database using a session table (sessions) with fields like session_id, user_id, expiry_time, etc.

• Shopping Cart Management:

  • Each user's shopping cart items are stored in a database table (shopping_cart) associated with the user_id. This table includes fields such as user_id, product_id, quantity, etc.

• Implementation Details:

  • The application uses SQL queries to manage sessions and shopping carts.
  • Example SQL statements are provided in content/database.sql.
