An e-commerce project for an online bookstore developed using NextJS 13 and its experimental appDir. Frontend UI is crafted with radix-ui and TailwindCSS. To manage server and client state, TanStack Query and Zustand are used respectively. StrapiCMS serves as the backend for this project.
I designed the entire UI/UX using Figma and created the database design myself. Additionally, I developed this web application from scratch, handling all aspects of the development process.
- Responsive Design
- Search Functionality
- Add To Cart
- Add To Wishlist
- SEO-friendly
- Accessible
The following are the features and functionalities to be added in the future.
- Order Processing
- Filtering Items
- Better Pagination
- Better Error Handling
- Better Loading UI with Next 13
- Accessibility enhancements
- Security improvements
- PWA? 🤷🏻♂️
- Testing? 🤷🏻♂️

To run the project locally, follow these steps:
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/satnaing/next-bookstore.gitInstall dependencies for frontend:
cd next-bookstore && npm installInstall dependencies for backend:
cd backend && npm installStart the frontend: (at the root /)
npm run devStart the backend:
cd backend && npm run developOpen your browser and go to http://localhost:3000
I have intentionally committed the backend/.tmp/data.db file to the GitHub repository. This is because I did not want to set up a separate database for the project and connect it to my free backend hosting. Please note that this approach is not recommended for production-level applications. In a real-world scenario, I would use a more robust DBMS like PostgreSQL, with proper hosting and security configurations.
