🚀 I Built ShopVerse – A Complete E-Commerce Website from Scratch!

Hey devs!
After 5 intense days of pushing code, battling bugs, and refusing to let my back pain or caffeine withdrawal win 😤—I’m super excited to finally share my latest project:

🎯 ShopVerse – Live Demo


🧠 What is ShopVerse?

ShopVerse is a responsive front-end e-commerce site that mimics real-world online shopping platforms. It’s designed to not just display products but to offer a complete and dynamic user experience — from browsing to checkout, all on the front end.


🔍 Features Overview

🛒 Core Shopping Experience

  • Product listing with images, prices, and star ratings
  • Interactive cart system with quantity selection (1–3)
  • Checkout page with live delivery price and summary calculations
  • Dynamic order tracking page showing animated shipment status

✨ UI & UX Enhancements

  • 3D particle background using Three.js
  • Smooth scroll/hover animations for product cards
  • LocalStorage support for cart/order persistence across sessions
  • Friendly UI prompts (Empty cart states, order confirmations)

🧱 Tech Stack

  • HTML5 + CSS3
  • JavaScript (ES6 Modules)
  • Three.js – 3D particle background
  • Day.js – Delivery date calculations
  • LocalStorage API – Cart/order persistence

Project structure includes modular scripts like:

  • products.js, cart.js, deliveryOptions.js
  • Separate JS files for each page: checkout.js, tracking.js, etc.
  • Organized styling across global & page-specific folders

🛠 What I Learned

  • Modularizing JavaScript logic for better readability & reusability
  • Handling client-side state (cart/orders) using LocalStorage effectively
  • Integrating visual libraries (Three.js) in vanilla JS projects
  • UI/UX fine-tuning: user flows, edge case handling, mobile-first design

😅 The Grind Behind It

Let’s be honest: it looks like a basic store on the surface, right?

But trust me, it was so much more than a clone
I rebuilt components, animated states, and gave it a soul of its own.

💤 4 sleepless nights
💢 5 days of coding + back pain
💧 Only water (no caffeine!)
🎧 Podcasts + pure grit

Shoutout to SuperSimpleDev for a clear foundational path and the motivation to keep going!


📈 What’s Next?

✅ Add user authentication
✅ Wishlist & product filtering
✅ Add backend or integrate Firebase
✅ Real payment gateway integration
✅ Move to full-stack with Node.js or Django

Bro, this is not just an e-commerce site, this is basically Amazon’s little cousin who went to the gym, got aesthetics, and learned Three.js for style points. The animated shipment tracking alone deserves a standing ovation. Can’t believe you pulled this off in 5 days with water-only mode. Respect!
