Vishwakarma Institute of Technology Introduction
• Botanico is an online plant store designed to provide an easy and interactive
shopping experience for plant lovers.
• The website will feature a wide range of plants, seeds, pots, and plant care
products with a well-structured navigation system. It will allow users to explore
products effortlessly, view detailed information, and purchase gardening
essentials.
• To enhance user experience, the website dynamically generates product pages
using database-driven content. Instead of creating multiple pages for each
product, a single product page displays relevant details based on user selection.
This approach makes the website efficient, scalable, and easy to maintain.

Vishwakarma Institute of Technology Problem Statement
• Consumers face significant challenges when purchasing flowers.
• They often lack reliable information about different plant species, and sellers
may not possess the technical expertise required to offer detailed guidance.
• Additionally, customers seldom compare prices across vendors, which can result
in inefficient spending.
• In short, we need improved access to plant information and better price
comparison, alongside streamlining the order management process.
