## Overview

Naxora is an ASP.NET Core MVC storefront with customer accounts, a nested product catalog, cart operations, and an administrator portal. Shoppers browse or filter the catalog and manage cart items through the product endpoints; account actions cover registration, login, profile changes, and password recovery. Administrators manage users, categories, subcategories, and products, including image processing. The excerpts show controller-to-service calls and stored-procedure access; README statements support the documented browser workflows. Database internals and some view-to-endpoint wiring were not sampled, so those connections are limited to documented relationships.

Main entry points: [`Naxora/Controllers/ProductsController.cs`](https://github.com/lalitdubey-glitch/naxora/blob/main/Naxora/Controllers/ProductsController.cs) (Catalog and cart endpoints), [`Naxora/Controllers/HomeController.cs`](https://github.com/lalitdubey-glitch/naxora/blob/main/Naxora/Controllers/HomeController.cs) (Accounts and home), [`Naxora/Models/DbLayer.cs`](https://github.com/lalitdubey-glitch/naxora/blob/main/Naxora/Models/DbLayer.cs) (Stored-procedure data layer), [`Naxora/Controllers/AdminController.cs`](https://github.com/lalitdubey-glitch/naxora/blob/main/Naxora/Controllers/AdminController.cs) (Admin workflows)
