"Project Overview:
A premium gift platform designed to give customers a simple, delightful, and curated gifting experience. The platform combines thoughtfully curated baskets with the flexibility for customers to create their own custom gift sets, all while maintaining a clean, high-end presentation and smooth user experience.


Core Goals:

* Make gifting easy, enjoyable, and personalized.
* Provide a premium, visually appealing interface that reflects a high-end brand.
* Allow customers to either select ready-made curated baskets or build their own basket based on occasion, budget, and preferences.
* Ensure backend logic enforces rules for basket minimums, tier pricing, and inventory, while keeping checkout and order tracking simple and transparent.


Key Features and Functionality:

1. Landing Page & Gifting Options:

* Customers can choose between:

* Curated Baskets: Pre-designed gift boxes created around themes such as holidays, occasions, or special moments.
* Build-Your-Own Basket: Interactive basket builder where users select a theme and/or budget and add items based on tier rules and minimum quantity logic.
* Customers can select basket type and size (Basic, Premium, Luxury).


2. Basket Builder Logic:

* Ensures minimum items per basket are met.
* Allows adding, removing, or replacing items.
* Optional personalization features, such as adding gift messages or including QR codes for uploaded photos or videos.

3. Checkout Flow:

* Provides a summary showing:
* Item total
* Basket fees
* Shipping costs
* Generates a unique order number for each purchase.
* Secure Stripe-based payment integration with address validation for sender and recipient.
* Automated confirmation pages and emails branded for a premium experience.

4. Admin & Operational Tools:
* Admin dashboard for managing orders, purchase orders, substitutions, and inventory tracking.
* Role-based access controls for admins and fulfillment staff.
* Tools for handling exceptions, such as out-of-stock items, partial fulfillment, or basket substitutions.
* System logs and audit trails for monitoring basket creation, AI suggestions, and admin activity.



5. AI-Enhanced Suggestions:
* Optional AI-powered recommendations to help users complete their baskets while following brand quality and margin rules.
* Admin toggle to enable or disable AI suggestions.
* AI suggestions operate with non-PII logging and cost/usage controls.



6. Fulfillment & Notifications:
* Order state tracking from placement to delivery: Ordered → Received → Assembled → Shipped → Completed.
* Automated notifications and tracking updates sent to customers.
* Scheduled delivery logic for holidays or future occasions (“Buy Now, Ship Later”).



7. Platform Setup & Launch:
* Fully scalable architecture and secure deployment.
* Live testing and verification of all workflows.
* Delivery of admin documentation and technical notes for future expansion (AI features, Amazon automation, etc.).


Summary:
The platform provides a seamless end-to-end gifting experience that balances pre-designed luxury baskets with the flexibility to build your own, all while maintaining a premium, branded interface, secure checkout, and robust admin controls. Every feature—from basket creation to order fulfillment—is designed to make gift-giving easy, customizable, and high-end." (client-provided description)
