Season 25 Challenge Pitch: "Build Your Own Mega Store A Practical Web Development Challenge"

Hello everyone

I hope you all are doing great.
As we all know many students today rely heavily on AI tools to complete their assignments. while AI is helpful it often reduces the real learning experience. Thats why I am bringing something different for Season 25 a practical challenge where students and learners will do their own research and build their own E ccommerce website step by step.

Project Title: Online Mega Store

Domain / Category: Web / E-Commerce
Challenge Style: Practical Educational and Hands On

---

Abstract / Introduction

The Online Mega Store is a complete e-commerce platform designed to allow users to browse and purchase products while also integrating drop shipping functionality.
In drop shipping third party sellers can list and sell their products on your website without managing the store themselves. When a customer places an order the system automatically sends the order details to the supplier who then directly ships the product to the customer. The store owner doesn’t need to keep any inventory or handle deliveries.

This means:

• Sellers can join and upload their products.

• They don’t need to run or manage the website.

• Orders are fulfilled automatically by the suppliers.

• The store owner still earns a profit by setting margins.

In this challenge participants will develop a working E-commerce website using WordPress WooCommerce and XAMPP Server (Localhost). They will follow a guided plan each week and complete the challenge by building a fully working drop shipping store with Real features like user login order tracking Cart functionality payment gateways and admin dashboard.

This is not theory. Its pure practical learning.
