Supabase Project: E-commerce Store with Shopping Cart

Building complete e-commerce store showcases Supabase capabilities for product management, shopping cart, checkout process, order tracking, inventory management, payment integration, and customer accounts creating full-featured online store with secure transactions, real-time inventory updates, order management dashboard, and customer portal. Unlike simple examples, production e-commerce requires complex database relationships, transaction handling, payment processing with Stripe, inventory tracking preventing overselling, order fulfillment workflows, email notifications, and admin dashboards for business operations. This comprehensive guide covers designing e-commerce database schema with products variants orders and customers, implementing shopping cart with session persistence, integrating Stripe for secure payments, building checkout flow with address validation, managing inventory with stock tracking, creating order management system, implementing customer accounts with order history, and building admin dashboard for store management. E-commerce project demonstrates real-world application requiring data integrity, security, performance optimization, and business logic. Before starting, review Next.js integration, Edge Functions, and RLS policies.

E-commerce Best Practices

  • Use Database Transactions: Wrap order creation and inventory updates in transactions ensuring data consistency
  • Implement Inventory Locks: Use row-level locks preventing race conditions and overselling
  • Handle Payment Webhooks: Process Stripe webhooks idempotently handling retries and duplicates
  • Calculate Taxes Properly: Integrate tax calculation services for accurate regional taxes
  • Optimize Product Images: Compress and serve optimized images improving page load times
  • Track Abandoned Carts: Send recovery emails to customers with incomplete checkouts
  • Secure Payment Data: Never store credit card details, let Stripe handle PCI compliance
Critical: Always use database transactions for order creation preventing partial failures. Implement proper inventory locking avoiding overselling. Validate all payment webhooks with signatures. Never store credit card numbers. Test checkout flow thoroughly including edge cases. Review security practices.

Common Issues

  • Inventory Overselling: Implement row-level locks in reserve_inventory function, test concurrent purchases
  • Payment Webhook Failures: Verify webhook signatures, handle idempotency, check endpoint accessibility
  • Cart Persistence Issues: Use both user_id and session_id, merge carts on login
  • Performance Problems: Add indexes on foreign keys, cache product data, use pagination

Enhancement Ideas

  1. Add product reviews and ratings with moderation system
  2. Implement discount codes and promotional campaigns
  3. Create email notifications for order confirmations and shipping updates
  4. Add product recommendations based on browsing and purchase history
