= The Depot Online Store

This application implements an online store, with a catalog, cart, and orders.

It is divided into two main sections:

* The buyer's side of the application manages the catalog, cart,
and checkout. It is implementation spans in four models and associated
controllers and views: Cart, LineItem, Order, and Product. Additionally,
there is a StoreController for the store front itself, and a
SessionsController to manage sessions.

* Only administrators can access stuff in the seller's side
(product maintenance and order fulfillment). This is implemented by the
LoginController, is enforced by the ApplicationController#authorize
method, and assisted by the Users and Carts resources.

This code was produced as an example for the book {Agile Web Development with
Rails}[http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails4/agile-web-development-with-rails-4th-edition]. It should not be
run as a real online store.
