ChatGPT:
User Management: You will need a user management system to register and authenticate users. This system should handle user data such as name, address, payment details, and order history.
Product Management: You'll need a product management system to manage your product catalog, including product details, images, prices, inventory levels, and other relevant information.
Order Management: You'll need an order management system to handle the order placement, processing, and fulfillment. This system should also handle shipping, tracking, and return management.
Payment Gateway Integration: You'll need a payment gateway integration to enable your customers to pay for their orders through your app. This system should be secure and reliable, and support various payment methods such as credit/debit cards, mobile wallets, and online banking.
Analytics: You'll need an analytics system to track user behavior, such as the number of app downloads, the number of active users, and the number of transactions. This information will help you make data-driven decisions to improve your app's performance.
Security: You'll need a security system to protect your app from fraud and hacking attempts. This system should use encryption, secure authentication, and other security measures to ensure that your customers' data is safe.
Notifications: You'll need a notification system to keep your customers informed about their orders, including shipping updates, order status changes, and other relevant information.
Libraries
Data Flow: SwiftUI has a built-in data flow system that makes it easy to propagate data changes throughout your app. This can be useful for managing user data and product information.
Networking: SwiftUI provides networking libraries, such as URLSession and Combine, that can be used to communicate with your server and retrieve data from your database.
User Authentication: SwiftUI provides libraries for user authentication and authorization, such as Apple's Sign In with Apple framework, which can be used to secure your app and protect user data.
Push Notifications: SwiftUI provides support for push notifications, which can be used to notify users about their orders, shipping updates, and other relevant information.
However, to implement the full range of back-end functionalities required for an e-commerce mobile application, you will likely need to use additional libraries or frameworks outside of SwiftUI, such as server-side frameworks like Node.js, Ruby on Rails, or Django, or payment gateway integrations like Stripe or PayPal.
As an iOS engineer, I want to break down what are the backend integrations that we will need for this e-commerce app.
