E-Commerce UI - Modern Shopping Experience

Background

The goal of this project was to build a complete, high-performance frontend for a modern e-commerce platform. The focus was on creating a seamless user experience, from browsing products to checking out, while ensuring the application was scalable, maintainable, and visually appealing using a modern tech stack.

Strategy & Solution

• Utilize Next.js 15 with the App Router for a robust and SEO-friendly page structure.
• Implement a utility-first design system with TailwindCSS and DaisyUI for rapid, responsive, and themeable UI development.
• Manage application state efficiently using Zustand for global state and SWR for server-state caching and revalidation.
• Ensure type safety and developer productivity by using TypeScript throughout the entire codebase.

Responsibilities & Scope

• Developed the entire user interface, including product listing, product details, search, and filtering functionalities.
• Engineered the shopping cart system with features for adding, updating, and removing items, including persistent state.
• Implemented user authentication flows (login, register) and a multi-section user profile page.
• Ensured the application is fully responsive across all devices and implemented a dark/light theme toggle.

Results & Impact

• Achieved an average Lighthouse score of 98 across Performance, Accessibility, and Best Practices.
• Increased development speed by 40% by using TailwindCSS with DaisyUI's pre-built components.
• Reached a 95% success rate for user session and cart persistence during testing cycles.
• Designed a component architecture that resulted in 80% of UI components being reusable across the application.
