A full-stack e-commerce platform built with modern technologies, featuring user authentication, product management, shopping cart functionality, and secure payment processing.

Key Features

• User Authentication: Secure login and registration system with JWT tokens

Technical Implementation

The platform is built using a modern tech stack with React for the frontend and Node.js for the backend. MongoDB serves as the database, providing flexible document storage for products and user data. The application features real-time updates using WebSocket connections and implements best practices for security and performance.

Challenges & Solutions

One of the main challenges was implementing a scalable cart system that works across devices. I solved this by combining local storage for guest users with database persistence for authenticated users, ensuring a seamless experience regardless of login status.
