STANDARDS ADOPTED
1. User Experience Standards:
● Ensure intuitive navigation and user-friendly interfaces to facilitate smooth
browsing and purchasing experiences.
● Implement responsive design principles to optimize the website's performance
across various devices and screen sizes.
2. Security Standards:
● Utilize secure socket layer (SSL) encryption to protect sensitive customer
information during transactions.
● Adhere to PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard)
compliance to safeguard credit card data.
● Implement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms to prevent
unauthorized access to customer accounts and personal information.
3. Payment Gateway Standards:
● Integrate reputable payment gateways that offer secure transaction processing
and support various payment methods to accommodate customer preferences.
● Ensure PCI compliance of the payment gateway service provider to maintain
the security of financial transactions.
4. Coding Standards:
Clarity, maintainability, and teamwork are essential for establishing
high-vocabulary code standards for an subaku lifestyles project. The
following are point-by-point coding standards that emphasize vocabulary:

i. Descriptive Variable Names : Select names for your variables that


accurately express their function and content. Select phrases that accurately
reflect the facts or functionality they represent rather than using vague or
general titles.

ii. Modularization and Encapsulation: By encapsulating functionality


into clearly defined functions or classes, you may encourage modular
design. Promote the use of encapsulation to improve code organization and
restrict access to internal details.

iii. Whitespace and Readability: For better code readability, follow


standard guidelines for indentation and spacing. To improve visual clarity
and logically divide code blocks, use vertical spacing.

iv. Algorithmic Elegance: Use algorithmic implementations that are


straightforward and effective, making use of each machine learning model's
advantages. To improve algorithmic elegance, encourage the adoption of
design patterns or well-known code idioms.

27
SUBAKU LIFESTYLES

Documentation Integrity: Keep thorough records outlining the functions, uses, and
anticipated results of each module and function. Use high-level language in your
documentation to make sure stakeholders who are not technical can access it as well.

Security Vigilance: Make using secure coding techniques a top priority, especially
when managing sensitive data in the context of subaku lifestyles. Review and update
the codebase frequently to fix any possible security flaws.

These high-vocabulary coding standards provide the groundwork for an organized,


collaborative, and sustainable codebase for any subaku lifestyles project.

CHAPTER 6
CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE
6.1 Conclusion
At the conclusion of this complex project, In conclusion, the transition from traditional
brick-and-mortar shopping to online e-commerce platforms signifies a fundamental shift in
consumer behavior. The younger generation, aged 15 to 30, has embraced this change
wholeheartedly, drawn by the convenience and time-saving aspects of online shopping. Their
reliance on digital channels for purchases reflects not only a technological shift but also a
cultural one, where the ease of browsing and purchasing from the comfort of one's home or
on-the-go has become the norm.
However, amidst this wave of digital transformation, challenges persist, particularly among
middle-aged consumers. Many in this demographic remain skeptical about the quality and
reliability of products sold online, clinging to traditional methods of shopping out of
familiarity and perceived trust. Additionally, there is a prevalent aversion to digital payment
methods such as credit cards, further hindering the adoption of online shopping among this
group.
Nevertheless, the potential for online shopping to flourish is undeniable. It presents a vast
opportunity for businesses to reach a wider audience, streamline operations, and offer
personalized shopping experiences. To fully realize this potential, concerted efforts must be
made to dispel misconceptions and alleviate concerns among all age groups. Educating
consumers about the security measures in place, the ease of returns and refunds, and the
diverse array of products available online can help bridge the gap and foster greater
acceptance of e-commerce as a viable and beneficial shopping alternative. As awareness
grows and trust in online platforms strengthens, the future of online shopping remains bright,
promising continued innovation and expansion in the years to come.

6.2 Future Scope

1. Expansion of Website Facilities:


● Explore opportunities to enhance the website's features and services, such as
implementing advanced search capabilities, personalized recommendations,
and interactive product visualization tools.
● Integrate additional payment options, including digital wallets and alternative
payment methods, to cater to diverse customer preferences and increase
convenience.
2. Introduction of Printing Option:
● Consider incorporating a printing option that allows customers to customize
selected products with personalized designs, logos, or text.
● Collaborate with printing partners or invest in in-house printing capabilities to
offer a seamless printing service for various merchandise, such as apparel,
accessories, and promotional items.
3. Custom Design Upload Functionality:
● Enable customers to upload their own designs or artwork directly to the
website's design tool, giving them the flexibility to create unique and
personalized products.
● Develop user-friendly interfaces and design tools that empower customers to
customize and visualize their designs in real-time before adding them to the
cart.
4. Online Publication and Marketing:
● Launch an extensive online marketing campaign to promote the website's
launch and attract a wider audience.

29
SUBAKU LIFESTYLES

● Utilize social media platforms, email marketing, search engine optimization


(SEO), and online advertising to increase visibility and drive traffic to the
website.
● Collaborate with influencers, bloggers, and industry partners to generate buzz
and foster brand awareness within relevant communities.
5. Integration of Marketplace for User-Generated Content:
● Implement a marketplace feature that allows individuals to showcase and sell
their own designs or creations on the website.
● Establish clear guidelines and processes for artists, designers, and creators to
list their products, set prices, and manage their storefronts effectively.
● Provide tools and resources to support sellers, including analytics dashboards,
inventory management tools, and marketing support to help them succeed on
the platform.
By pursuing these future initiatives, the e-commerce website can evolve into a dynamic and
inclusive platform that not only offers a wide range of products but also empowers customers
to express their creativity and individuality. These enhancements can contribute to increased
engagement, customer satisfaction, and business growth in the competitive online
marketplace.
