01 / Challenge
The Challenge
Glimble needed an online store to complement their popular transit app, but traditional e-commerce platforms couldn't integrate with their existing tech stack or meet their performance standards.
02 / Approach
My Approach
I designed a headless architecture using Shopify as the commerce engine with a custom Next.js storefront. This gave complete control over the user experience while leveraging Shopify's robust backend.
03 / Solution
The Solution
A blazing-fast, SEO-optimized storefront built with React, TypeScript, and GraphQL. Content management through Contentful allows the marketing team to update products and promotions without developer involvement.
04 / Outcome
The Outcome
A fast, SEO-friendly webshop that extends the Glimble ecosystem beyond the app. Built with sub-second page loads as the goal, and a CMS setup that lets the marketing team launch products and promotions on their own.
My role
- Full-stack development
- headless architecture design
