Rahat's BookStore

What is this project?

Rahat's BookStore is an online bookstore website that I built as my WebTech course project. It works like a mini digital library where people can create an account, log in, and browse through a collection of books — from popular novels to special editions — all shown with clean, attractive book covers on the homepage.

What can users do?

• Create a new account or log in to an existing one
• Browse a large collection of books displayed as cover cards
• Use "Remember Me" to stay signed in on return visits
• Enjoy a smooth, modern login experience with a blurred glass-style design

How it was built

The front end was built with HTML and CSS to create the dark, glassy login interface, while PHP handles the account creation and login logic on the server side. A MySQL database stores user account information and book records, so the site can securely manage logins and keep track of the available books.

Why I built it

This project was a chance to combine front-end design with real back-end logic — connecting a working login system to a database — and to practice building a complete, functional web application from scratch rather than just a static page.
