What had to be solved

  • Implementing a smooth product customization & configurator interface (size, colors, design) that works in real time.

  • Making sure the site remains fluid and intuitive on mobile & tablet devices.
  • Handling integrations (payment, order management, printing backend) without breaking user flow or increasing page load times.

How it was built

  • Built custom Elementor templates and modules for product display, customization panels, pricing previews, and user dashboards.
  • Developed back-end logic in PHP / MySQL to tie the product configurator to order generation and print backend workflows.
  • Used jQuery & core-js for live updates in customization (color changes, preview updates, cost recalculation) with asynchronous requests to server where needed.
  • Optimized images, used lazy loading, deferred noncritical JS, and compressed assets so the site loads quickly and smoothly.
  • Tested fully responsive layouts and interactions across various devices to maintain usability of the customization tools.
