01 · Purpose

The problem

Bulk used-book inventory is awkward to list title-by-title when many buyers simply want category bundles.

02 · Experience

How it works

Customers choose book category and kilograms, receive automatic bulk discounts, and can separately browse individually priced academic stock.

07 · Assessment

Strengths and limitations

Strengths

  • Simple inventory abstraction

Limitations / risks

  • Fulfilment/logistics intensive

08 · Evidence

What this record is grounded in

  • GitHub repository: simonmowatt1-sudo/bulkbooks
  • Repository README / project brief where available
  • Implemented home route where available
  • Published Lovable URL recorded from repository metadata

A published URL means the project metadata records a deployment address. It is not represented as runtime-tested unless a separate verification pass confirms that deployment.
