my_site_new

A Student-oriented, DBMS e-commerce online shopping web application for buying academic essentials with student discounts.

Here’s a summary of the tech stack and steps to run it locally using WAMP:

Tech Stack

• PHP (main backend language)
• Hack (PHP variant, but only a small portion)
• CSS (for styling)
• JavaScript (for interactive frontend elements)
• MySQL ( typical for PHP DBMS projects and works with WAMP)

How to Run Locally with WAMP

1. Install WAMP

   • Download and install WAMP from the official site: https://www.wampserver.com/en/

2. Clone the Repository

   • Download this repo as a ZIP or open a terminal and run:

     git clone https://github.com/jelonmusk/my_site_new.git

3. Move Project to WAMP

   • Move the cloned folder (my_site_new) to the WAMP www directory (usually C:\wamp64\www).

4. Set Up the Database

   • Check the repo for any .sql file or instructions in README for setting up the database.
   • Open phpMyAdmin (http://localhost/phpmyadmin) in your browser.
   • Create a new database (e.g., my_site_new).
   • Import the .sql file into this database (if available).

5. Configure Database Connection

   • Look for a config file (commonly config.php, db.php, or similar) in the project.
   • Update database credentials to match your local WAMP setup:
     • host: localhost
     • user: root (default for WAMP)
     • password: (leave blank unless you set one)
     • database: my_site_new

6. Start WAMP

   • Launch WAMP and ensure both Apache and MySQL services are running (green icon).

7. Run the Project

   • In your browser, go to: http://localhost/my_site_new

Notes

• If you encounter errors, check for missing dependencies or PHP extensions in WAMP.
• If there’s a README or INSTALL file in the repo, follow any extra steps mentioned.
