- Live storefront with layout admin
Context
A white-label e-commerce template deployed for Dar Al-Rafidain, an Arabic-language publishing and bookstore, live at daralrafidain.com.
Problem
The business needed a catalog-facing storefront and an admin path to change storefront layout without a full redeploy for every adjustment.
Approach
As one of two developers, I focused on the admin dashboard template system for dynamic storefront layout control, plus book listing, author, and category views and responsive UI components.
Challenges
Layout needed to stay flexible for operators while the public Arabic storefront stayed coherent and usable.
Decisions
Invest in admin layout control so content and presentation changes do not always require engineering releases.
Result
A live Arabic bookstore and publishing storefront with catalog browsing and admin-driven layout control.
Implementation
- Admin dashboard for dynamic storefront layout control.
- Book listing, author, and category views.
- Responsive UI components across the storefront.
