I have been building this in public for 2+ months and sharing my updates on X/Twitter.
One of my aims was to compare what it's like to develop a custom online store or use no-code tools like Shopify and WordPress.
I challenged myself to create an e-commerce store from scratch without any UI design files. This project was inspired by studying major online shopping platforms like Jumia, Bol, Backmarket, and Kemik.
How would you rate this?
Quite resourceful. Thanks for sharing.

I learned about a new Email hack today!
Plus addressing, a way to organize and customize email addresses without needing additional accounts.
It allows you to create variations of your email address by adding a plus sign (+) followed by any tag before the "@" symbol.
