## Enterprise Capstone Project

<Info>
  **Estimated Time**: 20+ hours | **Difficulty**: Advanced | **Prerequisites**: All Previous Modules
</Info>

Build a complete enterprise-grade e-commerce platform that implements all concepts covered in this course. This capstone project simulates real-world development scenarios -- not just "make it work" but "make it work the way a production team would ship it," with proper error handling, loading states, accessibility, testing, and deployment configuration.

**How to approach this project**: Do not try to build everything at once. Work in vertical slices: pick one feature (e.g., product listing), build it end-to-end with store, service, component, tests, and error handling. Then move to the next feature. This mirrors how professional teams work and prevents the common trap of having 10 half-finished features and zero shippable ones.

## Project Setup

```bash theme={null}
# Create new Angular project
ng new ecommerce-platform --style=scss --ssr

# Add dependencies
npm install @ngrx/signals @angular/cdk
npm install -D @playwright/test cypress

# Generate project structure
ng g @angular/core:standalone-migration --path=./src/app

# Create feature structure
mkdir -p src/app/{core,shared,features,layouts}
mkdir -p src/app/features/{auth,products,cart,checkout,orders,admin}
```

### Application Configuration

```typescript theme={null}
// app.config.ts
import { ApplicationConfig, provideZoneChangeDetection } from '@angular/core';
import { provideRouter, withComponentInputBinding, withViewTransitions } from '@angular/router';
import { provideHttpClient, withFetch, withInterceptors } from '@angular/common/http';
import { provideClientHydration, withEventReplay } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { provideAnimationsAsync } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations/async';

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [
    // eventCoalescing batches multiple change detection triggers from the same
    // event loop tick into a single CD cycle. This matters in forms where a
    // single keystroke can trigger multiple valueChanges emissions.
    provideZoneChangeDetection({ eventCoalescing: true }),
    provideRouter(
      routes,
      // Automatically binds route params to component inputs --
      // no more inject(ActivatedRoute) + switchMap boilerplate.
      withComponentInputBinding(),
      // Smooth page transitions using the View Transitions API.
      withViewTransitions()
    ),
    provideHttpClient(
      // withFetch() uses the Fetch API instead of XMLHttpRequest.
      // Required for streaming responses and better SSR compatibility.
      withFetch(),
      // Interceptor order matters: auth adds the token, error handles failures,
      // loading tracks in-flight requests for global spinners.
      withInterceptors([
        authInterceptor,
        errorInterceptor,
        loadingInterceptor
      ])
    ),
    // withEventReplay() captures user interactions during SSR hydration
    // and replays them once the client-side app is ready. Without this,
    // button clicks during hydration are silently lost.
    provideClientHydration(withEventReplay()),
    provideAnimationsAsync()
  ]
};
```

## Core Module Implementation

### Authentication Store

```typescript theme={null}
// features/auth/auth.store.ts
import { signalStore, withState, withMethods, withComputed } from '@ngrx/signals';
import { rxMethod } from '@ngrx/signals/rxjs-interop';
import { pipe, switchMap, tap } from 'rxjs';

interface AuthState {
  user: User | null;
  token: string | null;
  loading: boolean;
  error: string | null;
}

const initialState: AuthState = {
  user: null,
  token: null,
  loading: false,
  error: null
};

export const AuthStore = signalStore(
  { providedIn: 'root' },
  withState(initialState),
  withComputed((store) => ({
    isAuthenticated: computed(() => !!store.token()),
    isAdmin: computed(() => store.user()?.role === 'admin'),
    userName: computed(() => store.user()?.name ?? 'Guest')
  })),
  withMethods((store, authService = inject(AuthService)) => ({
    login: rxMethod<LoginCredentials>(

### Cart Store

```typescript theme={null}
// features/cart/cart.store.ts
export const CartStore = signalStore(
  { providedIn: 'root' },
  withState<CartState>({
    items: [],
    loading: false
  }),
  withComputed((store) => ({
    itemCount: computed(() => 
      store.items().reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.quantity, 0)
    ),
    subtotal: computed(() =>
      store.items().reduce((sum, item) => 
        sum + item.product.price * item.quantity, 0
      )
    ),
    tax: computed(() => store.subtotal() * 0.1),
    total: computed(() => store.subtotal() + store.tax())
  })),
  withMethods((store) => ({
    addItem(product: Product, quantity = 1) {
      patchState(store, (state) => {
        const existingIndex = state.items.findIndex(
          item => item.product.id === product.id
        );
        
        if (existingIndex >= 0) {
          const items = [...state.items];
          items[existingIndex] = {
            ...items[existingIndex],
            quantity: items[existingIndex].quantity + quantity
          };
          return { items };
        }
        
        return {
          items: [...state.items, { product, quantity }]
        };
      });
    },
    
    updateQuantity(productId: string, quantity: number) {
      patchState(store, (state) => ({
        items: state.items.map(item =>
          item.product.id === productId
            ? { ...item, quantity: Math.max(0, quantity) }
            : item
        ).filter(item => item.quantity > 0)
      }));
    },
    
    removeItem(productId: string) {
      patchState(store, (state) => ({
        items: state.items.filter(item => item.product.id !== productId)

## Testing Strategy

### Unit Tests

```typescript theme={null}
