Accessible e-commerce for everyone – Tips for improving your site
In the final part of the article series on Accessible e-commerce for everyone, we will provide some summary tips for improving your site. In the previous parts, we have reviewed customer needs and legal requirements, inclusive design and structured flows, as well as well-thought-out front-end and guiding texts.
Open source for software developers
At 3bits, a large part of the development we do is based on open source. Some of the open source projects we actively use are nopCommerce, React and .NET.
Why we work with Elasticsearch
When you build e-commerce solutions with large amounts of products that also have a lot of text and properties that you want to be able to search among, then the requirements for the search engine you choose increase. To be able to provide lightning-fast and good search results to the customer, a high-performance and scalable search engine is required as a foundation of the solution. One solution we have chosen in several major customer projects is Elasticsearch.
Single Page Application - for a faster site
With a SPA application, new possibilities open up to further speed up the response time and save processing power on the server. Single Page Application or SPA as we call it in everyday life, is really nothing new. Most people use it every day on, for example, Facebook, Instagram or Gmail. In e-commerce, however, it has not made an impact on a broad front yet and it is mainly in the slightly larger retailers that you find the exceptions.
A personal store front in the online store
When you walk past a store front in a store, you sometimes see something that you get stuck for. This even though the decorator has not done it for me. It could just as well be products that are not at all interesting to me that are displayed. In an online store, on the other hand, there are all possibilities to display a personal store front. The technology to achieve this in e-commerce is easily accessible and ready to be implemented today.

Microservices is an architectonic concept that unlike the classical way to build a large-scale application that does it all, instead uses small components that does parts of a larger process.
