Week 2: Core Development We built the product catalog, shopping cart, checkout flow with Stripe integration, and admin dashboard.

Week 3: Polish & Launch Final week was dedicated to testing, performance optimization, SEO setup, and a smooth launch.

  • 2.3s average page load time
  • 40% increase in conversion rate vs. their old site
