How to make an e-commerce website with HTML, CSS and JS - 01

Hello, Today in this article, we'll learn to create an e-commerce website using HTML, CSS and JS. This is a part of full stack e-commerce website. In this part we'll only create front end page's UI. We'll create 4 pages in this tutorial - Home page, Product Page, Search Page and 404 page.

To see demo or you want full coding tutorial video for better understanding. You can watch the tutorial below.

So let's start coding.

Home Page

Write basic HTML 5 template in index.html. And link home.css file to index file. Now, create navbar.

<nav class="navbar">
<div class="nav">
    <img src="img/dark-logo.png" class="brand-logo" alt="">
    <div class="nav-items">
        <div class="search">
            <input type="text" class="search-box" placeholder="search brand, product">
            <button class="search-btn">search</button>
        </div>
        <a href="#"><img src="img/user.png" alt=""></a>
        <a href="#"><img src="img/cart.png" alt=""></a>
    </div>
</div>
</nav>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Open home.css file. And inside it before start styling. As we'll have same navbar and footer in all pages. I thought of making their styles as a separate file. So import nav.js file inside home.css.

@import 'nav.css';
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And do navbar related styles inside nav.css.

Nav.css
*{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    font-family: 'roboto', sans-serif;
}

.navbar{
    position: sticky;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    background: #f5f5f5;
    z-index: 9;
}

.nav{
    padding: 10px 10vw;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
}

.brand-logo{
    height: 60px;
}

.nav-items{
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
}

.search{
    width: 500px;
    display: flex;
}

.search-box{
    width: 80%;
    height: 40px;
    padding: 10px;
    border-top-left-radius: 10px;
    border-bottom-left-radius: 10px;
    border: 1px solid #d1d1d1;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    background: none;
    color: #a9a9a9;
    outline: none;
}

.search-btn{
    width: 20%;
    height: 40px;
    padding: 10px 20px;
    border: none;
    outline: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    background: #383838;
    color: #fff;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    font-size: 15px;
    border-top-right-radius: 10px;
    border-bottom-right-radius: 10px;
}

.search-box::placeholder{
    color: #a9a9a9;
}

.nav-items a{
    margin-left: 20px;
}

.nav-items a img{
    width: 30px;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

nav

Now create links below the navbar.

<ul class="links-container">
    <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">home</a></li>
    <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">women</a></li>
    <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">men</a></li>
    <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">kids</a></li>
    <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">accessories</a></li>
</ul>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Above code is inside navbar element.

.links-container{
    width: 100%;
    display: flex;
    padding: 10px 10vw;
    justify-content: center;
    list-style: none;
    border-top: 1px solid #d1d1d1;
}

.link{
    text-transform: capitalize;
    padding: 0 10px;
    margin: 0 5px;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #383838;
    opacity: 0.5;
    transition: .5s;
}

.link:hover{
    opacity: 1;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

nav-2

Great! but as we want navbar in all pages. I am don't like to copy the code. So let's make this navbar with JS dynamically. Open nav.js file. And make a createNav function inside it.

const createNav = () => {
    let nav = document.querySelector('.navbar');

    nav.innerHTML = `
        <div class="nav">
            <img src="img/dark-logo.png" class="brand-logo" alt="">
            <div class="nav-items">
                <div class="search">
                    <input type="text" class="search-box" placeholder="search brand, product">
                    <button class="search-btn">search</button>
                </div>
                <a href="#"><img src="img/user.png" alt=""></a>
                <a href="#"><img src="img/cart.png" alt=""></a>
            </div>
        </div>
        <ul class="links-container">
            <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">home</a></li>
            <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">women</a></li>
            <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">men</a></li>
            <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">kids</a></li>
            <li class="link-item"><a href="#" class="link">accessories</a></li>
        </ul>
    `;
}

createNav();
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

If you see the above code, Inside the function first I am selecting nav element using querySelector method. And then writing its HTML using innerHTML. And the value of innerHTML is the same HTML elements that we have made in index.html file. You can now remove the HTML elements from there and also import nav.js.

<nav class="navbar"></nav>
<script src="js/nav.js"></script>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

nav-2

Now, let's make its header.

<!-- hero section -->
<header class="hero-section">
    <div class="content">
        <img src="img/light-logo.png" class="logo" alt="">
        <p class="sub-heading">best fashion collection of all time</p>
    </div>
</header>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Home.css
@import 'nav.css';

.hero-section{
    width: 100%;
    height: calc(100vh - 120px);
    background-image: url('../img/header.png');
    background-size: cover;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
}

.hero-section .logo{
    height: 150px;
    display: block;
    margin: auto;
}

.hero-section .sub-heading{
    margin-top: 10px;
    text-align: center;
    color: #fff;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    font-size: 35px;
    font-weight: 300;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

header

Now, we have to make product card slider. For that code this.

<section class="product">
    <h2 class="product-category">best selling</h2>
</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Note- we are inside index.html file.

Home.css
.product{
    position: relative;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 20px 0;
}

.product-category{
    padding: 0 10vw;
    font-size: 30px;
    font-weight: 500;
    margin-bottom: 40px;
    text-transform: capitalize;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

card slider

Now make product card.

// inside product section.
<div class="product-container">
    <div class="product-card">
        <div class="product-image">
            <span class="discount-tag">50% off</span>
            <img src="img/card1.png" class="product-thumb" alt="">
            <button class="card-btn">add to whislist</button>
        </div>
        <div class="product-info">
            <h2 class="product-brand">brand</h2>
            <p class="product-short-des">a short line about the cloth..</p>
            <span class="price">$20</span><span class="actual-price">$40</span>
        </div>
    </div>
    +7 more cards
</div>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

We'll make these product cards with JS and database dynamically later.

Home.css
.product-container{
    padding: 0 10vw;
    display: flex;
    overflow-x: auto;
    scroll-behavior: smooth;
}

.product-container::-webkit-scrollbar{
    display: none;
}

.product-card{
    flex: 0 0 auto;
    width: 250px;
    height: 450px;
    margin-right: 40px;
}

.product-image{
    position: relative;
    width: 100%;
    height: 350px;
    overflow: hidden;
}

.product-thumb{
    width: 100%;
    height: 350px;
    object-fit: cover;
}

.discount-tag{
    position: absolute;
    background: #fff;
    padding: 5px;
    border-radius: 5px;
    color: #ff7d7d;
    right: 10px;
    top: 10px;
    text-transform: capitalize;
}

.card-btn{
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 10px;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
    padding: 10px;
    width: 90%;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    border: none;
    outline: none;
    background: #fff;
    border-radius: 5px;
    transition: 0.5s;
    cursor: pointer;
    opacity: 0;
}

.product-card:hover .card-btn{
    opacity: 1;
}

.card-btn:hover{
    background: #efefef;
}

.product-info{
    width: 100%;
    height: 100px;
    padding-top: 10px;
}

.product-brand{
    text-transform: uppercase;
}

.product-short-des{
    width: 100%;
    height: 20px;
    line-height: 20px;
    overflow: hidden;
    opacity: 0.5;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    margin: 5px 0;
}

.price{
    font-weight: 900;
    font-size: 20px;
}

.actual-price{
    margin-left: 20px;
    opacity: 0.5;
    text-decoration: line-through;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

slider

Now make, pre and next button of course.

// before product-container element.
<button class="pre-btn"><img src="img/arrow.png" alt=""></button>
<button class="nxt-btn"><img src="img/arrow.png" alt=""></button>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
.pre-btn, .nxt-btn{
    border: none;
    width: 10vw;
    height: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
    background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 0%, #fff 100%);
    cursor: pointer;
    z-index: 8;
}

.pre-btn{
    left: 0;
    transform: rotate(180deg);
}

.nxt-btn{
    right: 0;
}

.pre-btn img, .nxt-btn img{
    opacity: 0.2;
}

.pre-btn:hover img, .nxt-btn:hover img{
    opacity: 1;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

slider 2

Now, let's make the slider working. Open home.js file. And code this.

const productContainers = [...document.querySelectorAll('.product-container')];
const nxtBtn = [...document.querySelectorAll('.nxt-btn')];
const preBtn = [...document.querySelectorAll('.pre-btn')];

productContainers.forEach((item, i) => {
    let containerDimenstions = item.getBoundingClientRect();
    let containerWidth = containerDimenstions.width;

    nxtBtn[i].addEventListener('click', () => {
        item.scrollLeft += containerWidth;
    })

    preBtn[i].addEventListener('click', () => {
        item.scrollLeft -= containerWidth;
    })
})
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In the above code, I am simply selecting all product containers, next buttons, pre buttons using querySelectorAll method. And then just looping through each container. And adding click event to next button and pre button.

Import the home.js file inside index.html.

<script src="js/home.js"></script>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

We are done with product cards also. Let's make collections section now.

<!-- collections -->
<section class="collection-container">
    <a href="#" class="collection">
        <img src="img/women-collection.png" alt="">
        <p class="collection-title">women <br> apparels</p>
    </a>
    <a href="#" class="collection">
        <img src="img/men-collection.png" alt="">
        <p class="collection-title">men <br> apparels</p>
    </a>
    <a href="#" class="collection">
        <img src="img/accessories-collection.png" alt="">
        <p class="collection-title">accessories</p>
    </a>
</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
.collection-container{
    width: 100%;
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr);
    grid-gap: 10px;
}

.collection{
    position: relative;
}

.collection img{
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    object-fit: cover;
}

.collection p{
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
    text-align: center;
    color: #fff;
    font-size: 50px;
    text-transform: capitalize;
}

.collection:nth-child(3){
    grid-column: span 2;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

collection

Now you can copy the product section 2 more times after collection element. And you can also change the images and data. Don't worry we'll make the cards dynamically with database in future.

After done copying product section. The only thing left in our page is footer. So let's make it.

<footer>
    <div class="footer-content">
        <img src="img/light-logo.png" class="logo" alt="">
        <div class="footer-ul-container">
            <ul class="category">
                <li class="category-title">men</li>
                <li><a href="#" class="footer-link">t-shirts</a></li>
                <li><a href="#" class="footer-link">sweatshirts</a></li>

            <ul class="category">
                <li class="category-title">women</li>
                <li><a href="#" class="footer-link">t-shirts</a></li>
                <li><a href="#" class="footer-link">sweatshirts</a></li>
                <li><a href="#" class="footer-link">shirts</a></li>

            </ul>

Great Work. As we did for navbar. Let's make this footer also with JS dynamically. Open footer.js file and do the same thing, that we did for navbar.

const createFooter = () => {
    let footer = document.querySelector('footer');

    footer.innerHTML = `
    <div class="footer-content">
        <img src="img/light-logo.png" class="logo" alt="">
        <div class="footer-ul-container">

Now you can delete the footer elements from the the index file. And import the footer.js file.

index.html
<footer></footer>

<script src="js/footer.js"></script>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

footer2

Great! We are done with homepage. Now, let's create product page.

Product page.

In product page. Write HTML 5 template. And link home.css, product.css file.

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/home.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/product.css">
</head>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And import these JS files.

<script src="js/nav.js"></script>
<script src="js/footer.js"></script>
<script src="js/home.js"></script>
<script src="js/product.js"></script>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And now you can just make a navbar and footer by adding nav and footer element inside body.

<nav class="navbar"></nav>
<footer></footer>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

Capture

Isn't that simple. You can also copy the product container element from home page to here. After done copy the cards. Let's make product detail section. Make it after navbar.

<section class="product-details">
    <div class="image-slider">
        <div class="product-images">
            <img src="img/product image 1.png" class="active" alt="">

            <img src="img/product image 3.png" alt="">
            <img src="img/product image 4.png" alt="">
        </div>
    </div>
</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Product.css
.product-details{
    width: 100%;
    padding: 60px 10vw;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
}

.image-slider{
    width: 500px;
    height: 500px;
    position: relative;
    background-image: url('../img/product\ image\ 1.png');
    background-size: cover;
}

.product-images{
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 20px;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
    width: 90%;
    background: #fff;
    border-radius: 5px;
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
    height: 100px;
    grid-gap: 10px;
    padding: 10px;
}

.product-images img{
    width: 100%;
    height: 80px;
    object-fit: cover;
    cursor: pointer;
}

.product-images img.active{
    opacity: 0.5;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

image slider

Make details section in the right now.

Now just a simple section we have to make. A detail description section. Make is outside product-details

<section class="detail-des">
    <h2 class="heading">description</h2>
    <p class="des">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Veniam, ......</p>
</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
.detail-des{
    padding: 0 10vw;
    text-transform: capitalize;
}

.heading{
    font-size: 30px;
    margin-bottom: 30px;
}

.des{
    color: #383838;
    line-height: 25px;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

detail

Now make the image slider working, and size button toggle-able. Open product.js file.

const productImages = document.querySelectorAll(".product-images img"); // selecting all image thumbs
const productImageSlide = document.querySelector(".image-slider"); // seclecting image slider element

let activeImageSlide = 0; // default slider image

productImages.forEach((item, i) => { // loopinh through each image thumb
    item.addEventListener('click', () => { // adding click event to each image thumbnail
        productImages[activeImageSlide].classList.remove('active'); // removing active class from current image thumb
        item.classList.add('active'); // adding active class to the current or clicked image thumb
        productImageSlide.style.backgroundImage = `url('${item.src}')`; // setting up image slider's background image
        activeImageSlide = i; // updating the image slider variable to track current thumb
    })
})
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And then code this.

// toggle size buttons

const sizeBtns = document.querySelectorAll('.size-radio-btn'); // selecting size buttons
let checkedBtn = 0; // current selected button

sizeBtns.forEach((item, i) => { // looping through each button
    item.addEventListener('click', () => { // adding click event to each 
        sizeBtns[checkedBtn].classList.remove('check'); // removing check class from the current button
        item.classList.add('check'); // adding check class to clicked button
        checkedBtn = i; // upading the variable
    })
})
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Great Work! we are done with product page also. Now we have to make search page which is very simple.

Search Page

As we made navbar and footer in the product page. Do the same for this page also. Link these files to it.

<head>
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/home.css">
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/search.css">
</head>
<body>
    <nav class="navbar"></nav>
    <footer></footer>

    <script src="js/nav.js"></script>
    <script src="js/footer.js"></script>
</body>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Now make the product cards. First make the heading.

<section class="search-results">
    <h2 class="heading">search results for <span>product</span></h2>
</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Search.css
.search-results{
    width: 100%;
    padding: 60px 0;
}

.heading{
    font-size: 20px;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    font-weight: 400;
    margin-bottom: 40px;
    padding: 0 10vw;
}

.heading span{
    font-weight: 700;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

heading
For cards, we'll use the same card we made for homepage. Just copy the product-container element from homepage and paste it inside search-results.

But we are using flex box which will make the cards go side by side. But we don't want that for our search page. So just over write the product-container elements property.

Product.css
.product-container{
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
    height: auto;
    grid-row-gap: 40px;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

grid

Now, we are almost done. The only page we have to create is 404 page.

404 Page

Do the same for this page also to make navbar. I didn't made footer in this page but if you want you can make it too. After making navbar. Link 404.css file. And let's code the page.

<img src="img/404.png" class="four-0-four-image" alt="">
<p class="four-0-four-msg">look like you are lost. Head to beack to our <a href="#">homepage</a></p>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Footer.css
.four-0-four-image{
    display: block;
    margin: 60px auto;
}

.four-0-four-msg{
    text-align: center;
    text-transform: capitalize;
    color: #383838;
}

.four-0-four-msg a{
    color: #383838;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Output

404

Cool stuff but some of the practices shown are not the best ones. Example you are using '@import' inside a CSS file. Which is not that good for performance. In simple HTML, CSS and JS site, its better if you have multiple CSS being request using the traditional link href method, especially if your host is http2 ready.

Also, HTML being handled in JS. That also is not the best separation of concerns. I know, in frameworks/libraries like React for example you write HTML (in React's case. JSX) inside JS but those apps are built like that, that the state builds the UI and you need to tie up really close the UI and components with the state for the app to work as expected.

On this scenario we dont have this kind of requirement.

Not saying it does not work. It works and it works well. Is it a good thing to mix technologies though like this? Probably not.

Just some personal opinions. Hope on the next articles in the series you will improve these suggestions.

Regarding the separation between js and html, I'm wondering how you would handle dynamical loading of products from, e.g., a CMS, and creating respective product cards without using some combination of js and html... Do you have any idea regarding this? In react it is straightforward, due to the mixing of html and js world.
Thanks in advance for any tip :)

Nice article. I have a suggestion when you style in css. You should restrict style use global tag like "a" tag, "img" tag because when the css read your file it will read from right to left. Example: That case " .collection p ". It will style all your "p" tag after that it have selected the "p" tag in .collection class. It is a option for practice performance. Again Nice article!

Why you're create some template using js?
It's not ok for seo, this saves a couple of lines of html code, but the browser needs to parse the js additionally, which does not have a very positive effect on performance and it doesn't make much sense

Haha yeah you should not be using top: 50%, translate(-50%)... use flexbox instead

there are but the hack you used isn't really great. Flexbox is simply the best and most standard way today.

The final UI looks nice. Could be nice to see a CSS pattern such as BEM, there're cool stuff like grid.

Willing for the integration of the mobile responsive version.

Also, I'd like to warn our dear newbie readers to reproduce this only in order to practice writing code -- for CSS basically. Rely on proven patterns, proven libraries and frameworks, follow good practices, start from building your state, question the CI/CD, SEO basics; to sum up: give attention to the main picture of your e-commerce project by relying on already proven practices.

Thank you so much for sharing.
