+Welcome to COSC310 Netflix & Coding Online Web Shopping Platform! We hope you find this system useful and efficient.
+
+Team Members:
+Kithe Kisia
+Coran McColm 
+Fraser Muller
+Harrison Kayihura
+
+    Installation Instructions: Step-by-step setup procedures for running the system using Docker:
+Since we are containerized, running the system using docker requires a few steps. Only assuming you have Docker desktop, here are some instructions to install the program, please make sure you are running commands in terminal and have the correct GitHub directory.
+Step 1, first clone and enter directory:
+git clone https://github.com/KitheK/Netflix-and-Coding.git
+cd Netflix-and-Coding
+
+Step 2, Checkout main branch (there by default):
+git checkout main
+
+Step 3, Build and Start Everything (first time), this will start up both the containerized front and backend:
+docker compose up --build https://github.com/KitheK/Netflix-and-Coding
+
+Step 4, Shutting down the program:
+docker compose down
+
+
+    Dependencies: A complete list of required tools, libraries, and services (with version details):
+For a full list of requirements for the system, please see requirements.txt . We recommend running:
+pip3 install -r "requirements.txt"
+upon loading into a virtual environment to ensure no conflicting packages and minimal running package load. Instructions for how to initialize a virtual environment depend on your operating system and are outside the scope of this handoff.
+
+        Maintenance Requirements: Details on ongoing maintenance, including:
+
+    Account credentials (if applicable):
+Admin user login details:
+email:admin@example.com
+password:AdminPass1
+The user dashboard/account can be switched to using the login feature - once logged out, when you try to process an add to cart or add to feature process, you will be prompted to login.
+Example User login credentials:
+email:user@gmail.com
+password:User@123.com
+
+    Database management procedures:
+In our systems configuration, all read and writes from or two any of our JSON files includle checks for duplicates and safety checks for removals. We recommend using the built in functions to create or remove any data entries from the database. However, if you wish to add entries manually, please follow the HashMap/Dict structure of the files. We have a key (either the product or user code depending) which relates to data entries 'under' the umbrella of what the key represents. This changed depending on case but is evident when reading the file with this given background knowledge.
+
+    Configuration of external APIs or service:
+We have used two External APIs in the development.
+
+Base Currency Layer for currency conversion: "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@fawazahmed0/currency-api@latest/v1/currencies/{base_currency_lower}.json"
+This layer is configured in the external files (ie external_service, external_router etc.). The way it works is first we call through this API to return the most recent exchange rate. Once this function has executed we then call a price conversion function using this previously obtained conversion rate to calculate local prices. We have shortened the available currencies to GBP CAD EUR USD, from the data native Rupees.
+
+Image Scaper: Creates a mimick request to amazon, finding the necessary image from a provided product link from the database. From this image, the scaper obtains the URL landing image which is transfered back into the database to refresh the image. The scraper is configured in two parts: image_scraper_service to do the work and admin router.post where we require ADMIN permissions to request all photo refreshes. This is largely beneficial as amazon natively has an image expiry. Our approach navigates around this.
