@Anikesh02 i want to work on it but I have some queries.

1. Where is the backend code to "Implement server-side API calls to process payments securely"
2. I can't see any database integrated so where I'm gonna save the transaction history
3. What do you mean by implement functionality for manual payment processing ? elaborate please .

Checkout.jsx: Right now, only a component for handling the checkout process, including billing information and placing an order is present.

The transaction history can be saved in the Firestore database. Configuration for db is present in the firebase config file. firebase.config.js

Manually handling payment methods that are not automated, such as cash on delivery or manual bank transfers. It would be great if there's a functionality to record these transactions in the database and update the order status manually.
