Merch Dropper aims to solve, for creators and enterpreneurs, the hassle that comes with creating customized merchindize at a small scale. We aim to take the work away from you so you focus on what you do best, to create. We focus on recieveing the orders, shipping, payments collection, and all the nitty gritty for a fee. We are a plug and play one stop shop.
- Design Upload
- Instant Product Mockup
- Cloudinary image/product mockup storage functionality
- Easy and secure checkout

Front end built using:
We chose this framework because:
- Most familiarity with React as a FE framework
- Single Page Application
- It is very responsive
Back end built using:
- Having a true relational database will work very well with the data we expect to be using.
- Everyone on the team has a working knowledge of NodeJS and that'll make it easier to debug if we ever run into any issues.
Auth0 authentication API allows users to manage all aspects if user identity. It offeres endpoints so your users can log in, sign up, log out , access other API's, and more. The API is designed for people comfortable with integrating RESTful API's.
Stripe is a service that allows merchants to accept payments online especially developers. The Stripe API alloes developers to access fucntionality of Stripe. The API is organized around REST; it has predictable resource-oriented URL's, accepts form-encoded requesdt bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs. The Stripe API has test mode available for ease of development and does not affect live data or interact with any banking networks.
Cloudinary is an end-to-end image- and video-management solution for websites and mobile apps, covering everything from image and video uploads, storage, manipulations, optimizations to delivery. The Cloudinary API utilizes REST API methods that can be called directly from within your client application or by using one of Cloudinary's SDKs that wrap the REST API and greatly simplify using its methods. Authenticated uploading is done over HTTPS using a secure protocol based on your account's cloud_name, api_key and api_secret parameters.
The Scalable Press API is a comprehensive REST service for viewing the product catalog, making quotes, and completing orders for the Scalable Press printing and fulfillment services. Requests are made using standard GET, POST, and DELETE requests. All responses are JSON. Once signed up, an API key and a test API key will be provided to the customer to use in their client App. When using the test API key, it works just like the Stripe test API key where no charges are made against the user.
Jest is a JavaScript Testing Framework maintained by Facebook, Inc. with a focus on simplicity.
Cypress is a JavaScript Testing Framework easier to use and more impactful than Jest because it shows you directly the site being changed and interacted with.
The coverage file will be merch-dropper/coverage/lcov.info and the script used is cypress:coverage. (currently doesn't work due to an error in the github actions which looks like this: level=error msg="failed to read file src/App.js\nopen src/App.js: no such file or directory")
Look in .github/workflows/ci.yml in coverage: to switch things around.
