## Overview

This is a Django storefront with account, catalog, session basket, order, and Stripe payment areas. The apparent customer flow is catalog browsing, basket management, payment, and order completion, but the README is empty and most views and URLs were not sampled, so their detailed routing and handoffs cannot be confirmed. The graph shows only relationships supported by the sampled source; the JavaScript submits to the order endpoint and payment views call the order confirmation function.

Main entry points: [`payment/views.py`](https://github.com/johnitopaisah/e-commerce-api/blob/main/payment/views.py) (Payment views), [`static/core/payment/index.js`](https://github.com/johnitopaisah/e-commerce-api/blob/main/static/core/payment/index.js) (Checkout browser), [`basket/basket.py`](https://github.com/johnitopaisah/e-commerce-api/blob/main/basket/basket.py) (Session basket), [`store/models.py`](https://github.com/johnitopaisah/e-commerce-api/blob/main/store/models.py) (Catalog models)
