This is an e-commerce selling custom made knives. It was a super exciting project, since this is a dynamic site with Gatsby. The task was fitting, because - even though this is a shop - managing the cart had to be on the client side (for privacy reasons) and the order process is only a form submission, so no complicated backend logic or online payment was needed.

I think useContext has great potential. It's a super simple way to have the superpower similar to Redux and extracting the functionality to a custom hook makes it all predictable. All the advantages of global state without any surprises!

This is a work in progress project for building my custom forum system. Part of the motivation was playing around with data fetching and testing in Next. I can safely say I like it a lot. I've used FaunaDB for storing the data and built a quick wrapper around it.

For testing I've made a mock version of the wrapper for super quick integration tests, but on commit I always run the actual version of it (in a test database) to check if there's a regression in the mock version. Now that the api endpoints are stable I'm in the process of building the UI with "Cypress Driven Development".

Other notable parts of the front-end are SWR for making refetching data real easy and Framer Motion for super simple animations.

This is an e-commerce selling managed tours in Mallorca. The interesting part was in the back-end, connecting multiple API-s - the data is stored and managed on external services. Without webhooks some of these needed to be run periodically, so I needed to manage background queues, check for changes and save the data normalized. The front-end was built with Vue, the payment is handled by Stripe.
