AgriLink Rwanda — a multi-vendor agricultural marketplace connecting Rwandan farmers directly with consumers. Built with PHP, MySQL, and Bootstrap 5 for EWA408510 (E-Commerce and Web Application). # AgriLink Rwanda 🌾 **A Smart Digital Marketplace for Farmers and Consumers** AgriLink Rwanda is a multi-vendor agricultural e-commerce platform that connects local Rwandan farmers directly with consumers. Farmers register, list their own produce, and manage their own orders; consumers browse products from many different farms, add items to a single cart, and check out in one transaction — even when the order spans multiple farmers. Built for **EWA408510 — E-Commerce and Web Application**, Faculty of Computing and Information Sciences, University of Lay Adventists of Kigali (UNILAK). 🔗 **Live app:** agrilink-rwanda.onrender.com 🔗 **GitHub repo:** github.com > Note: the live app runs on Render's free tier, which spins down after periods of inactivity.
