Inspiration

After building web development projects for a while, I have been curious about how large scale softwares manage their frontend and backend so efficiently. Thus, I started by building a small scale e-commerce website with the MERN stack.

What it does

  • Shows the product list to the user
  • Helps the user to manage their cart

How I built it

  • Built backend with express and node
  • Connected a MongoDB atlas cluster
  • Built the frontend with react

Challenges I ran into

  • Understanding newer concepts
  • Making related changes in code based on different versions

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

  • Building an app with a (sleek?) UI

What I learned

  • Basics of the MERN stack

What's next for ShopHero

  • Deploying the app online
