## What it is
Companion lecture code for the Coding for Entrepreneurs eCommerce course, walking step-by-step through building an eCommerce web application with Python, Django, Bootstrap, and JavaScript. Each lesson is stored as an incremental commit covering products, templates, search, cart models, and Stripe/Mailchimp integrations.

## Use cases
- learn to build an ecommerce site with django step by step
- django ecommerce tutorial with example code
- how to integrate stripe payments into a django app
- build a shopping cart model in python django
- learn django models, views, and templates by following a real project
- bootstrap and django ecommerce reference code
- example of ajax cart updates with jquery in django

## When to choose
- You are following the Coding for Entrepreneurs eCommerce course and need the matching code for each lesson
- You learn best by diffing small, incremental commits that build up models, querysets, templates, and cart logic
- You want a concrete, worked example of Stripe checkout and Mailchimp list integration in Django

## When to avoid
- You need a production-ready, actively maintained eCommerce platform rather than tutorial code
- You are on modern Django or Python - this targets Django 1.11 / Python 3.6 and will not run unmodified
- You need clearly licensed code for commercial reuse - the repository has no license
