Shopping Project
One bag for the ultimate online shopping experience made easy, fast, and secure
The Challenge
There were multiple challenges that we faced during the development of this project. The first challenge that we faced was in the implementation of the checkout or buyout process. Here, we had to ensure that the user doesn’t see any activity done in the background.
Since there were many processes going out in the backend. We also faced the challenge to ensure smooth synchronization and communication between the backend and frontend processes.
Online stores and eCommerce websites send a lot of spam and promotional emails to the users. So, our clients wanted that no user should receive such emails except the emails which have order confirmation and other important details. So, this was again a challenge to filter our important emails from spam.
Another challenge we faced was of integrating React chrome extension on various third-party eCommerce websites.
The Solution
We solved the first challenge by implementing automation buyout with the help of Node js’ Puppeteer tool. Here we created a unique user with the help of the details filled by the actual user for the first time. After that, we used this unique user as a proxy for the entire process from signup to checkout.
We resolved the second challenge by ensuring smooth communication between the backend and frontend with the help of socket.io.
To resolve the issue of email filtering we used email tunneling.
We integrated React chrome extension with the various third-party eCommerce websites with the use of content script and background script.
