I’m ready to launch an online store that sells physical products and I want it built entirely on the MERN stack—MongoDB, Express.js, React, and Node.js—rather than on an off-the-shelf platform like Shopify or WooCommerce. The goal is a clean, responsive storefront that gives shoppers the familiar features they expect: • A seamless shopping cart that remembers items between sessions • Product review functionality so purchasers can rate and comment • A wishlist that lets visitors save items for later You’ll also wire up an intuitive admin dashboard where I can add, edit, and remove products, manage inventory and orders, and moderate reviews. Payment gateway integration (Stripe or similar), secure user authentication, and basic SEO readiness should be baked in from the start. Please share examples of past MERN e-commerce work, outline your development timeline, and highlight any libraries or services you like to leverage (Redux, Mongoose, JWT, etc.). I’ll provide branding assets and product details as soon as we kick off.
