Your demonstration will be important to give the class an idea of the starting point for your web site. Your presentation should consider what you would do for sales reporting, site security, and use of a shopping cart even though you did not have time to implement these features. You may need to use google to evaluate shopping cart software and to understand what is required to secure an e-commerce site.
