Project Overview
This project aims to develop an eCommerce website where users can list and sell their second-hand products. The platform will support secure payments via Stripe, ensuring smooth transactions between buyers and sellers. The website will be built using React, Next.js, and Redux, offering a responsive and optimized experience for both mobile and desktop users.
To enhance security and performance, the system will use Firebase Authentication for user login, Cloud Functions for backend operations, and MySQL as the database. A team of 6 developers will handle the complete software development while collaborating with designers to create an aesthetically appealing and user-friendly UI.
