Trunkshop

Trunkshop, a personal project undertaken with two non-technical co-founders, aimed to revolutionize the creation of sales networks for niche tangible products that posed challenges in online sales, encompassing both B2C and C2C interactions.

In my role as the sole developer and one of the investors, I embraced the challenge of building Trunkshop from the ground up, utilizing React and Node to craft the platform. To ensure a reliable and scalable infrastructure, we deployed the project on Google Cloud.

Beyond the technical aspects, Trunkshop presented a unique opportunity for personal and professional growth. As an investor and developer, I was compelled to consider not only the technical implications but also the business perspective in every decision. This holistic approach to development significantly enhanced my understanding of the intricate relationship between technology and business goals, making me a more well-rounded developer.

The experience gained from Trunkshop was invaluable. It pushed me to expand my skill set beyond coding, enabling me to analyze projects from both a technical and business standpoint. By immersing myself in this multidimensional role, I honed my ability to make informed decisions that aligned with both the technical requirements and the overarching business objectives.

Trunkshop stands as a testament to my dedication as a developer and investor. It provided me with a unique opportunity to grow and evolve, embracing the interplay between technology and business, ultimately contributing to my professional development as a more insightful and strategic developer.
