Figma Web Design & UI kit i used for this project is design by Weird Design Studio
My process
Built with
- Semantic HTML5 markup
- CSS custom properties
- Flexbox
- CSS Grid
- Next JS - React Framework for Production
- Sanity - Sanity is a customizable solution that treats content as data to power digital business.
- Stripe - APIs to power online payment processing for e-commerce
- react-hot-toast - react library that adds beautiful notifications to our react application.
- react icons - JS library to add icons
- swiper js - JS library to add slider component
- canvas-confetti - Lightweight JS plugin to create a confetti celebration explosion effect. It draws confetti graphics on the HTML canvas element.
What I learned
I learned how to connect stripe as payment gate for e-commerce. Full code for connecting to stripe in /pages/api/stripe.js
The confetti effect is implemented on the payment success page after the user successfully checkouts their cart
Continued development
The development of this project can be continued by adding a search filter functionality, an e-commerce newsletter, activate the slider function for product section in homepage. In the near future, I'm going to explore react js search filters and maybe add that functionality myself.
