E-commerce Multi Brand Web Site with a Blog for Designer Eyewear
Description: Multi brand e-store divided into logical sections for picking out the eyewear model according to different preferences, trying the model on in the virtual mode, matching the required or prescribed optics, and ordering the glasses respectively.
Challenge: Initial client’s specification included developing in Ruby on Rails using Spree. The main obstacle was Spree’s lack of functionality required for the website. That is why Spree needed core changes in this case. The site had to meet the requests like full merging with third-party systems, consistent and interrelated product parameters in the selection section, prescription manipulation, and manifold backend roles. Standard checkout operation scheme needed changes according to the given design.
Solution: A range of full functionality starting with registration and finishing with brand’s representative live chats was achieved thanks to customization of Spree as a base. Our team added such specific characteristics as multiple level administration from a single server, virtual glasses try-on with a help of a third-party service, managing prescriptions by applying online processing, reviewing and e-mail. The client got the option to pay off with a credit card and then track the shipping by FedEx service.
Technologies: Ruby On Rails, Spree, RSpec, JavaScript, integration with Shipworks, MailChimp, Opticaonline. Using AWS as hosting platform (EC2, RDS).
