Tech Stack

Recommended Stack

• https://github.com/payloadcms/payload -> use this for your cms

• https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/templates/ecommerce

• Frontend: Next.js + Tailwind CSS

• Backend: Next.js API routes / server actions

• Database: PostgreSQL

• ORM: Prisma

• Images: Cloudinary or S3-compatible storage

• Payments: Razorpay — UPI, cards, net banking, COD logic

• Shipping: Shiprocket API

• Auth: NextAuth/Auth.js or simple OTP login

• WhatsApp: WhatsApp Business link initially; API automation later

Keep Costs Low

Use mostly free tiers initially:

Vercel + PostgreSQL free tier + Cloudinary free tier + Razorpay/Shiprocket pay-per-use.

Development Approach

Build it as a single Next.js application with PostgreSQL. Keep the code modular so you can later extract services if U-Liva grows.
