About

An ecommerce platform that allows user to explore different construction products. They have the option to buy them or add them to a Wishlist and buy them later. The user is presented with attractive offers on various products.

The user also can purchase gift certificate for their friends or relatives. The client had an existing OpenCart store. Creating an app out of the web store and APIs using the same backend, we made the App functional.

The Challenge

Not many ecommerce platforms cater to construction as the category. Developing compatible APIs of OpenCart for Construction category was quite a task. Moreover, we required more options for Filter and Sorting, which are unavailable in OpenCart Standard API.

The Solution

We had to find a workaround. Developing fresh APIs from scratch was a call for the worst-case scenario. The plan was to pull the data from the standard OpenCart API, customize the standard OpenCart API as per the above challenges, and if everything goes as per the plan integrate the APIs in the view part of the application architecture. Fortunately, everything went super smooth although it required playing some development hacks and plentiful tricks.
