Crochet CasRey

Crochet CasRey is a handmade crochet business from Honduras: amigurumis, everlasting flowers, bags and custom gifts. I built its website end to end so the owner can run the shop on her own. Visitors browse the catalog by category, read free patterns and step-by-step lessons, and order through WhatsApp, while a private admin panel lets the owner publish products, upload photos and write articles without touching code. The stack is chosen for speed: Bun for installs and scripts, Next.js 16 with Turbopack and the React Compiler on React 19, the native TypeScript 7 compiler, Oxlint for linting, Tailwind CSS v4, and Turborepo caching lint, typecheck and build so unchanged deploys on Vercel restore instantly. Content and images live in Supabase (Postgres, Auth and Storage).

• 3Private admin panel with Supabase Auth to publish products, upload images and write articles

• 7Turborepo-cached lint, typecheck and build on Vercel, so unchanged deploys skip the rebuild

Challenges

The owner is not technical, so the site had to be fully manageable from a simple admin panel while staying fast and easy to find on search engines and AI assistants. Pairing server-rendered pages with Supabase-backed content kept the catalog editable without code, and a toolchain built on Bun, the React Compiler, TypeScript 7 and Oxlint keeps feedback loops and builds nearly instant.
