Short summary of the project

Zave, one of the largest heat pump resellers in Scandinavia, partnered with Net Group to create a custom e-commerce platform. The solution includes a highly flexible content management system (CMS) and an exceptionally fast front-end built with React.JS and Node.JS. The platform supports multiple countries and payment providers, offering a seamless online shopping experience for customers across Sweden, Finland, and Estonia.

About the Customer

Zave is one of the key heat pumps marketplaces in Scandinavia and has been around since 1988. Their long expertise on the market allows them to offer premium service and price levels that are incomparable to their competitors. You can always expect full service including the latest and most efficient heat pumps together with experts who can help with installation.

Custom e-Commerce Software

A custom content management software was developed for Bestair e-commerce. The custom CMS solution allows us to have a lot of flexibility over the back-end system which is crucial when developing a fast and unique front-end. The scope of the CMS includes for example multilingual pages, menus and products management, order management and settings customizations, such as currency selection and shipping costs. Built on Laravel’s official administration panel Nova, it allows for a lot of customizability as well as great support for third-party packages. Many of the packages used are developed by us and are open-source, visible in GitHub under Optimist Digital’s group. The e-commerce solution has been integrated with 5 payment providers, which in total provide more than 20 different payment methods across three different countries (Sweden, Finland, Estonia).

Exceptionally Fast Front-End Solution

The front-end single-page-application, built using React.JS with Node.JS server side rendering, is exceptionally fast and responsive. Utilizing the latest and greatest React.JS version along with MobX data store provides a seamless user experience for anyone looking to browse, compare or buy heat pumps. Deployment As with Optimist Digital’s other projects, the project is shipped using Docker. GitLab is used to both store the codebase, build the Docker images and store the Docker images. Post-build, the image is deployed to a Rancher instance which orchestrates the containers.

Results of the project

The custom e-commerce solution improved Zave’s online shopping experience by providing fast and responsive front-end performance, seamless integration with multiple payment providers, and a flexible CMS. The platform's ability to support multilingual content and a wide range of payment methods has expanded Zave’s reach across multiple countries, enhancing their customer experience and increasing sales.
