So, lets go through it, but directly to the point.

A PRD i.e. Product Requirements Document is necessary before developing a software product.

Purpose: There is a popular local shop (imagine the name as ‘Kirana‘) in your area which sells daily needs related products like groceries, health care, personal care, kitchen essentials, household, stationery etc.

Kirana is very much popular in the local area because the quick commerce businesses is not dealing right now in your area. The shop owner has decided to go online and capture more market and to retain the customers even in the future.

1. Objective

2. Scope

  • Create a basic website with contact information.

  • Make the products information like details, price etc... available to all.

  • Display discounts, offers

    • Accent Color: Yellow (#FFC107) for CTA buttons

That was all for now! I hope this can provide a fair idea about the purpose and requirements. Any feedback is most welcome. Please let me know what can be done to make this better the next time I create a PRD
