- rognjen 5y agoAdd to cart button on the index. Better, bigger, more standardized images. Standardized size of the product box. The fancy animations when the product is loaded are unneeded, although fun to implement. When loading the product page you should bootstrap the data for the product into the page itself, rather than make an additional API call. Potentially invest in an ecommerce bootstrap theme. This might be a good reference: https://popchart.co/collections/prints https://popchart.co/collections/prints It's a good starting point for a side project if you want to learn about how the platform runs. I do have to say that if you are looking to make money from sales, rather than just practice your coding, I would strongly advise to use an existing platform such as Shopify or WooComm. Building an ecommerce platform gets quite complex quite fast, that it's not worth doing it unless the platform is your business.
- raja05 5y agoThank you for the feedback. It was really helpful. I built this e-store for practicing coding only. Though I will open my personal e-store using Shopify in near future. And yes, the images and animations need some amendments.

- raja05 5y agoHaha! A man once asked me for an amulet on Hacker News
- pabe 5y agoImprove performance scores (Pagespeed insights guides you), get rid of those Animations as they don't add value, add search suggestions (take a look at Instantsearch), add guest checkout, add some "trusted shop" certificate, and, most important add way more product information! It's content commerce these days.
- raja05 5y agoThank you for your feedback. All points noted down. Currently this app has been made for practicing coding to enhance my frontend skills.
