Product Goal
Triplex was built to demonstrate more than a storefront UI. The goal was to create a dependable commerce flow where content editors can manage products, customers can keep their carts across devices, and orders remain consistent through authentication, payment, and inventory changes.
My Role
Sole product and engineering ownership
- Product and interaction design
- Next.js application architecture
- Commerce data modelling and Sanity Studio configuration
- Authentication, cart, checkout, and order-history implementation
- Stripe payment and webhook integration
- Deployment, error handling, and production hardening
Engineering Approach
Content and Identity
- Sanity manages products, categories, collections, and order content
- Clerk provides authentication and protected customer order history
- Dynamic metadata supports product discovery and shareable pages
Cart and Checkout
- Zustand and local storage provide immediate client-side cart state
- Upstash Redis persists carts across authenticated devices
- Stripe handles checkout, with signed webhooks used to confirm payment events
Order and Inventory Reliability
- Prices and stock are revalidated on the server before checkout
- Duplicate-order protection prevents repeated payment events from creating multiple orders
- Inventory updates are handled as part of the confirmed order workflow
Why This Project Matters
Triplex demonstrates full-stack product judgment: joining interface quality with content operations, secure identity, payment processing, persistent state, and defensive server-side validation.
