Bordeaux in Box
This repository is our biggest and last PHP project.
History
We created a monthly delivery box company with two other associates and one graphic artist. The service grew well. We did multiple refactoring and integrated many different features, even did a marketing pivot.
After 1.5 year of nearly perfect technical flow, the financial aspect of the company catch up and we decided to give up. Finances are the core of a company, and even when you manage everything else perfectly, bad financial management leads indubitably to bankruptcy.
Development
We built a very customized shopping cart tailored to the needs of our delivery service.
We engineered systems to handle customer leads, order flow, a recurring payment system using stripe (>50 000 euros growth), and a module that programmatically fulfilled orders.
We also aggregated data that was collected from our users and build out a reporting module with several easy to understand graphs that helped to make sense of many complex and relational data sets (>2 000 orders).
Technologies
Laravel 5.0 MySQL SASS / CSStyle Brunch / GothamJS
Legacy
I decided to publish the repository of my former company so the code could be useful to any coder. This is also a way to tell our story and live our mourning a little better.
