Simple static webshop

This is meant to get you up and running with a webshop as fast as possible and with minimal or no costs at all.

• No backend
• Compiles to static HTML, CSS and JavaScript
• Runs with any hosting
• Simple, unobtrusive and easy to get started

Instead of its own backend, the webshop relies on the Paylike dashboard for handling transactions.

Prerequisites:

• Node.js for development and building
• A host such as Amazon Web services or Heroku (any web server, Node.js not required)
• SSL/TLS certificate (https) for secure access (any website should, especially ecommerce)
• A merchant account at Paylike (free)

Features

• Responsive design
• Any currency
• Google Analytics integration (optional)

Install

git clone git@github.com:paylike/webshop-example.git
cd webshop-example
npm install
cp conf.example.json conf.json

Develop

npm run dev

Open http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser.

Deploy to static host (e.g. Amazon S3)

Adjust conf.json (see conf.example.json).

npm run build

Copy the content of the /dist folder to your web server (e.g. an Amazon (AWS) S3 bucket).

If your using a VPS or a dedicated server with Nginx, you need a configuration file along the lines of nginx.sample.conf.

Deploy server

Adjust conf.json (see conf.example.json).

With Heroku and similar services, this should work out-of-the-box by pushing this repository.

npm start
