Create an eCommerce Store with Next.js and Stripe Checkout
Instructor
Colby Fayock
Accept payments & sell products powered by Stripe and the best of the JAMStack
There are as many ways to build an e-commerce store on the internet as there are products to sell. One thing is for certain, e-commerce is here to stay and as professional developers we need to understand how to build fully custom stores for our clients using the best modern tools available.
- React: flexible and customizable while following modern best practices
- Next.js: lightening fast with guide rails to help your project perform as consumers expect
- Stripe Checkout: lets you offload reams of complicated business logic to a trusted third party that maintains regulatory compliance, global payments, and a standard UX.
Your store will have well managed local component state using React Hooks and you'll also have clear and cohesive shared (global) state with React Context.
Finally you'll deploy your custom store to Vercel (the platform behind Next.js) as well as how to make your Next.js e-commerce store portable to deploy to other platforms.
🌱 This is a Fresh Course

Videos were split up into small chunks, supporting code on Github was very helpful also

Nice course, straight to the point! Having the code by videos is great also. It feels incomplete though, maybe one or two more videos to wrap up styling and redirect after checkout.
