I’m launching a brand-new online store and need a developer who can take the entire build from concept to production. The core requirement is a robust product catalog with fast, intuitive search so shoppers can find items quickly on both desktop and mobile. A modern, responsive UI is non-negotiable, and the codebase must be clean, efficient, and easy to scale as my inventory grows. I’m open to the stack you’re most comfortable with—whether that’s React + Node, PHP/Laravel, or another proven e-commerce framework—so long as it delivers solid performance and is easy for me to maintain. Clear communication is important; I’d like short, regular updates and well-documented code so future tweaks are straightforward. Deliverables • Fully functional e-commerce website with product catalog and search • Responsive front-end with polished UI/UX • Admin controls for adding/editing products and managing inventory • Deployment to my preferred hosting provider and a brief hand-off walkthrough If you’ve built similar stores before and can hit deadlines reliably, I’d love to hear how you’d approach this project and the timeline you’d propose.
