I’m ready to get an online grocery store up and running and need a developer who can turn the core buying journey into a smooth, reliable experience. The priority is a secure shopping cart with a friction-free checkout flow that handles multiple items, calculates totals and taxes correctly, and sends out order confirmations automatically. User accounts should be optional rather than forced; shoppers can check out as guests, but I’d like the framework in place so regular customers can still sign up, save addresses, and view past orders. If you can structure the code so this login layer can grow later—perfect. You’re free to choose the stack you’re most productive with—whether that’s a modern SaaS platform, a custom PHP/Laravel build, or a React-powered frontend backed by Node. What matters is that the final store: • Displays products clearly, grouped in logical categories. • Lets customers add, update, and remove items from the cart in real time. • Processes payments securely via a mainstream gateway (Stripe, PayPal, or something equivalent you suggest). • Sends order details to both the buyer and the admin email once payment clears. I’ll supply product data and images once the framework is in place. Please include a quick overview of your preferred technology stack, any similar stores you’ve built, and the estimated turnaround time for a first functional version.
