Payment-ready storefront
Integrated the product stack around React, Node.js, Firebase, and Stripe.
01
Why
A fashion store for younger shoppers needed a real checkout, not only a catalogue.
02
Decision
A React and Redux front end. The Stripe checkout button sends a token to a Node backend, which creates the charge. Amounts are converted to the smallest currency unit before they are sent.
03
Trade-offs
This is one of my first projects, built at the start of my career. It uses the Stripe checkout approach of that time and is kept as it was built, to show where I started.
04
Outcome
A complete storefront with payments. It is finished but not live.
