The goal of this project is to design an e-commerce site.

The functionalities of the site are the following:

• create an account or login

Notes : I observed some latencies in the fetch methods, I will work to improve this in the continuation of the project. I don't store the data (products in cart...) of each session except for the account data, so it could happen that at the loading of the site you already have products in your cart. This is normal because my server (backend) is a shared server.
