Challenges of an eCommerce Platform Creation

Sellix team was looking for strong engineering support to add brand-new features to their eCommerce platform. They also wanted to redesign, refactor, and upgrade some of its previously written parts.

They aimed at turning their solution into an ultimate customizable eCommerce platform with an impressive set of features that could allow sellers to create their own e-store, as well as upload, modify, and sell digital products in several minutes. What is the main eCommerce platform development challenge they wanted to overcome? It lay in making all new parts of the system work well with each other as well as with the features they wanted to upgrade.

To do this, our engineers needed to become an integrated part of the already existing development Sellix team and become its front-line force. Here is the full list of the project goals we needed to achieve:

  • Help to scope, deliver, and manage the tasks on the redesign of the existing parts of the system and adding new functionality;
  • Build, test, and deploy new eCommerce platform features providing deep customization of the system parts;
  • Enable quick, flexible, and simple embedding of the platform products into 3rd party solutions;
  • Rework the platform admin panel for better security, data control, and more flexible management options;
  • Tune the platform speed, as well as fix arising bugs, and solve any issues on the client side, if any;
  • Provide continuous technical support and maintenance for the platform.

During this eCommerce management platform project implementation, we worked in close cooperation with the client’s development team. We not only used a state-of-the-art toolset and out-of-the-box architecture design to provide Sellix with the best possible bespoke eCommerce platform delivery. We also helped to manage and estimate the project tasks, and set deliverable deadlines. Here is how the whole process looked in detail:

Project architecture. To create this API-based eCommerce platform, we used the React and Vue.js libraries for the frontend, Node.js platform and PHP language to build logic for the backend, and Git for effective source code management.

Team structure. We implemented the full scope of the project goals with 3 of our senior full-stack engineers, who are well-versed both in frontend and in backend toolsets and have a rich background in cloud services.

Communication tools. We have paid special attention to communication during this multi-vendor eCommerce platform development project. Fively had very productive discussions and fruitful brainstorms with the client’s development team on all the project questions and stumbling blocks, and we solved them together by choosing the best possible solution. It was an excellent experience working together with the Sellix team.

Also, each week we provided the client with detailed standups where we shared our progress and insights on this B2B eCommerce website development project, solved all the arising issues, and chose the best-fitting technical solutions. We used Jira for task status tracking, as well as email and Slack for short discussions of any issues.

Only after 9 months of this project duration, we have already achieved all its major goals: we greatly improved the platform performance and speed, fixed all the bugs on the user side, and enriched it with a set of ultimate customization features.
