Requirements/user stories

It is important to know the problem statement being solved before starting any coding or design. Agile development methodology recommends breaking the overall project into modules and services, and then implementing a few features at a time as user stories. The idea is to get a minimally viable product (MVP) and then keep adding features.

• Returns details of a product given a product ID
• Gets a list of product IDs for a given product category
