Description

This is a single-project course, meaning that we spend almost 13 hours building an eCommerce shop using the MERN stack along with Redux Toolkit. We start from absolute scratch with an empty folder. You will learn everything from setting up a server, modeling data, creating a MongoDB database, seeding data, creating the UI, managing state with Redux, authentication with JWT and much much more.

The ProShop platform that we will be building will include the following features:

    Full-featured shopping cart with quantity
    Product reviews and ratings
    Top products carousel
    Product pagination
    Product search feature
    User profile with orders
    Admin product management
    Admin user management
    Admin Order details page
    Mark orders as delivered option
    Checkout process (shipping, payment method, etc)
    PayPal / credit card integration
    Custom database seeder script

This is not a documentation-type course. This is a “jump in and get your hands dirty” course where by the end, you have an actual real-world project to use and put on your portfolio. You will learn the following by completing this course..
