Project Overview
This project aimed to modernize the admin experience for a growing e-commerce platform. The legacy system was slow, difficult to use, and couldn't scale with the business needs.
Using Vue 3's Composition API and modern development practices, we built a lightning-fast, intuitive dashboard that transformed how the team operates, resulting in a 50% improvement in page load times and 40% increase in productivity.
Real-time Analytics
Interactive dashboards with live sales metrics, revenue tracking, and customer behavior analysis using Chart.js visualizations.
Inventory Management
Complete product CRUD operations with stock monitoring, bulk operations, and low-stock alerts to prevent stockouts.
Order Processing
Streamlined order tracking, automated workflows, invoice generation, and shipping integration with major carriers.
Customer Management
User profiles, purchase history tracking, customer segmentation, and integrated support ticket system.

Challenges & Solutions
Real-time Updates
Problem: Dashboard needed to reflect real-time changes from multiple users
Solution: Implemented WebSocket connection with automatic reconnection and optimistic updates for instant feedback.
Large Dataset Performance
Problem: Tables with 10,000+ products caused significant performance issues
Solution: Implemented virtual scrolling, server-side pagination, and smart caching strategies.
Complex Form Validation
Problem: Product forms had interdependent validation rules
Solution: Created custom composables with Vuelidate for reusable, maintainable validation logic.
Impact & Results
Code Sample
Pinia Store Pattern
// productStore.ts
import { defineStore } from 'pinia'
import { ref, computed } from 'vue'
export const useProductStore =
defineStore('products', () => {
const products = ref([])
const lowStock = computed(() =>
products.value.filter(
p => p.stock < p.minStock
)
)
return { products, lowStock }
})"The new dashboard transformed our operations. What used to take hours now takes minutes. The team delivered an exceptional product."
