01 / The context

A problem worth solving.

A storefront needs a coherent shopping journey, dependable cart behavior, and clear boundaries between an interactive demo and a real transaction.

02 / My contribution

The engineering underneath.

Developed product search, filters, sorting, and detail views alongside a browser-local guest cart with recovery behavior. Built persistent Light and Moonlight themes, keyboard navigation, and documented product trade-offs with regression suites.

Implemented features

  • Product browse, search, filters, and sorting
  • Defensive cart persistence and recovery
  • Validated simulated checkout
  • Theme-aware components with Vitest and Playwright suites

  2. Keep a cart · CART

    A browser-local guest cart persists selected items and recovers defensively from invalid stored state. This diagram does not place an order.

  3. Make the boundary clear · SIMULATION

    Checkout is validated and simulated. No payment, shipment, hosted order, or authentication is performed in this portfolio study.

04 / Scope & boundaries

An honest account of the scope.

Fictional independent storefront. Simulated checkout only: no real payments, shipments, or durable hosted orders. Not affiliated with Isha Foundation or Isha Life. Hosted authentication and an AI shopping assistant are not presented as implemented features.
