Full-Stack E-commerce Web Build -- 2

I need a brand-new, full-featured web e-commerce application built from the ground up. The project spans everything a modern online store requires: front-end UI/UX, back-end logic, database design, secure authentication, and seamless integration with a payment gateway. Because this is a web platform, performance, responsive layout, and SEO-friendly architecture are essential from day one.

You will work with me on choosing the final tech stack—whether that ends up being a MERN, MEAN, Django, Laravel, or another proven solution—so long as it delivers clean code, easy maintenance, and scalability. Version control through Git, thorough documentation, and regular progress pushes to a staging server are expected throughout the build.

Deliverables
• Responsive storefront with product catalogue, search, and filtering
• Shopping cart, checkout flow, and real-time inventory handling
• Payment gateway integration (Stripe, PayPal, or comparable) with PCI-compliant handling
• Admin dashboard for product, order, and user management
• Automated tests plus end-to-end QA before production release
• Deployment script or CI/CD pipeline to move the site live

Acceptance criteria: every core user journey—browse, add to cart, purchase, manage order—must complete without error on the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge for both desktop and mobile breakpoints.

If you’re ready to get started, let’s outline milestones and timeframes so we can launch on schedule.
