For the frontend of your e-commerce platform, I focus on creating a visually appealing and functional user interface using React (the "R" in MERN). Here's a suggested roadmap for your first week:

1. Set Up Your Environment

Install Node.js. Set up a React project using create-react-app or Vite. Install necessary libraries, such as: React Router for navigation. Axios or fetch API for HTTP requests. TailwindCSS, Material-UI, or Bootstrap for styling (optional).

2. Core Features to Implement

Homepage: Showcase products or categories. Product Listing Page: Display products with options to sort/filter. Product Details Page: Provide detailed information about a specific product. Cart Page: Show selected items with options to adjust quantities or remove items. Login/Signup Page: Include forms for authentication (basic UI).

3. Suggested Folder Structure

src/

  ├── components/
│ ├── Header.js
│ ├── Footer.js
│ ├── ProductCard.js
│ ├── CartItem.js
├── pages/
│ ├── HomePage.js
│ ├── ProductListing.js
│ ├── ProductDetails.js
│ ├── Cart.js
│ ├── Login.js
├── assets/ # For images and static files
├── App.js
├── index.js
└── styles.css

4. Key Points to Focus On

Responsive Design: Ensure your site looks good on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
Reusable Components: For elements like product cards and buttons.
Routing: Use React Router to handle navigation.
Mock Data: Use JSON or hardcoded data for products initially.
