## Overview

Red Store is a shoe-commerce application: shoppers browse/search the catalog, manage a wishlist and persistent cart, then complete shipping, payment, and order review; users can also maintain profiles and addresses. Admins manage products, orders, and dashboard metrics, including AI-assisted descriptions and image uploads. The frontend uses Redux actions for API-backed state; Express routes dispatch backend handlers that work with MongoDB and external services. Frontend action/page wiring beyond the sampled files is represented only where documented in the README; unsampled internals are not inferred.

Main entry points: [`backend/server.js`](https://github.com/benmassaoudlazher789-creator/app-e-commerce/blob/main/backend/server.js) (Express API), [`backend/model/Product.js`](https://github.com/benmassaoudlazher789-creator/app-e-commerce/blob/main/backend/model/Product.js) (Products), [`backend/controller/product.controller.js`](https://github.com/benmassaoudlazher789-creator/app-e-commerce/blob/main/backend/controller/product.controller.js) (Catalog management), [`backend/controller/order.controller.js`](https://github.com/benmassaoudlazher789-creator/app-e-commerce/blob/main/backend/controller/order.controller.js) (Order processing)
