Excited to Announce My New Project – E-Shop RESTful API!

I’m thrilled to share my latest backend project, a complete and production-ready E-Commerce RESTful API built using Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB ️

This project represents months of learning, planning, and debugging to create a real-world, scalable backend system ready to power any online store — whether web or mobile.

? Key Features:

Categories, Subcategories, Brands & Products CRUD Operations

Advanced Search, Filtering, Sorting & Pagination

Image Upload (Single & Multiple) + Image Processing with Sharp

Reviews & Ratings System

Wishlist & User Address Management

Shopping Cart + Discount Coupons

Cash & Online Payments (Stripe Integration)

Authentication & Authorization (JWT, Role-based Access Control)

Email Verification & Password Reset such as in linkedIn

Global Error Handling & Validation Layer

Cloud Database (MongoDB Atlas) + Production Deployment (Vercel)

️ Architecture Highlights:

️ Built on clean MVC structure with an added Factory Service Layer above controllers — enabling scalable and reusable business logic.

️ Implemented Reusable Components and Middlewares for validation, sanitization, logging, and error handling.

Follows RESTful best practices with layered design and maintainable, production-grade code.

Lessons Learned & Challenges:

One of the biggest challenges was designing reusable logic across multiple modules while keeping controllers clean and maintainable.

Building the Factory Service Layer helped me separate business logic efficiently and make the project more scalable.

Also, optimizing MongoDB queries and handling complex population relationships improved both performance and structure.

I’m really proud of what I’ve built and how much I’ve learned through this journey.

Would love to hear your feedback and thoughts
