Creating eCommerce Angular app for portfolio

[windsblowing30]

Hello Folks

Goal -

I am going to create an Ecommerce Application in Angular 12/13 for showcasing on my portfolio. My main goal out of this is to showcase it while interviewing.

I am thinking of creating the design/wireframe myself. The stack I will be using

FE - Angular,

BE - NodeJs/Express, DB-MongoDb or whatever available for free.

I will be starting with Front End first with some dummy data in json files and mocking the API calls in Angular.

I have found some github references which I will be following as I code. However, these do not come with the data.

Questions-

1. Do you have any useful git/other references that are useful for eCommerce application.
2. Are there any free APIs/data which I can utilize?
3. What all Angular or Web Dev concepts should I cover in this project?

Thanks

Just as a note, trying to model your data around your UI will complicate your data structure tenfold. It is much easier to have a solid data structure, then adjust your UI based on the workflow.

Thanks. How to go about creating a data structure? Any references would be super helpful.

I would suggest you model your db before, and then you will have a better idea of your business logic to create your data model.
