XIII STORE

// the case study


XIII STORE key art

Production-grade e-commerce with a custom admin dashboard. Storefront, payments, inventory — all custom-built.

// the brief

Built to demonstrate end-to-end e-commerce domain mastery — products, orders, payments, inventory, customer management, all from scratch. The storefront is the shop window; the custom admin dashboard is the machine room.

// the wins

  • Storefront and custom admin dashboard, built from zero
  • Products, orders, payments, inventory, customers — the full domain
  • Firebase Cloud Functions backend, Firestore data layer

01 // the point

E-commerce is the standard test of a full-stack developer because it touches everything: catalog, cart, checkout, payments, stock, customers, admin. XIII Store exists to pass that test without shortcuts — no template, no BaaS storefront kit.

02 // the two apps

The storefront is the visible half. The admin dashboard is where the real complexity lives — inventory movements, order state machines, customer management. Both custom, both production-grade.
