What Is It
CRWN Clothing is a modern e-commerce store which includes products and categories, user login with user cart functionality, and an integrated payment gateway.
Why Did I Build This
This project challenged me to take my knowledge in React to a new level. The project was built as part of pursuing my online certification as a React developer with the Zero to Mastery Academy.
With this project, I learned how to use third party libraries to build efficient and modern experiences for users.
What Tools Did I Use
Some of the tech used in this app includes:
- Firebase to store the product categories, products, and user accounts.
- Redux has been used to manage centralized application state for things like a user's logged in status and the user's shopping cart.
- Stripe has been integrated to simulate payments for a user's purchases.
Lessons Learned
Taking the time to thoroughly read different pieces of documentation is crucial to ensuring that a project will function as intended. Learning where to look while debugging errors was essential for this project's success, API integrations and live deployment.
