This week you’ll be building an e-commerce shopping site for a fake brand. It doesn’t need to actually take payments or have a checkout, but it should have product listings and the ability to add items to a shopping basket.
- Server-rendered with Next.js ✔️
- Hosted on Vercel ✔️
- Data stored in AWS Postgres ✔️
- Homepage with product listings ✔️
- Individual product pages, containing: Quantity/colour/variant pickers ❎
- “Add to basket” button ✔️
- Basket page showing all items being purchased ❎
- Basket contents saved for future visits ❎
- Filter products by category ❎
- Sort products by price ❎
- “Featured” products on homepage ❎
First, run the development server:
npm run dev
# or
yarn devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js.
The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
