A Broken Store Bleeding Revenue Every Day
The client inherited a half-built codebase from a previous developer who disappeared. The store was offline, customers were contacting them on WhatsApp, and the owner had no way to manage products or orders without direct database access.
- Incomplete, broken codebase — checkout flow, product pages, and admin were all non-functional
- Live store was down, costing real revenue and customer trust every day
- No admin tooling — all changes required raw database access
- No order tracking or fulfilment management system

Full Rebuild with a Powerful Admin Engine
I audited the incomplete codebase, salvaged usable logic, and rebuilt the broken parts from scratch — then added a full-featured admin dashboard that makes the business truly self-sufficient.
Complete Store Rebuild
Rebuilt product listings, category browsing, cart, checkout and order confirmation from the broken codebase up.
Custom Admin Dashboard
Proprietary admin panel for product management, stock levels, pricing editor, and order status updates — all in one place.
Global Pricing Editor
Owner can update individual or bulk product prices in seconds — no database, no developer needed.
Security Hardening
Auth guards on all admin routes, input sanitisation, environment-secured MongoDB credentials, and XSS protections throughout.
