Inspiration

I needed a storefront for Klutch Farms — fish, poultry, eggs, livestock — that I could run entirely from my phone, with no dev team and no budget for off-the-shelf e-commerce platforms eating into thin agribusiness margins.

What it does

A full e-commerce site where customers browse products, place orders, and pay via Paystack. On the backend, a custom admin dashboard lets me approve orders, update delivery status, and search order history — all optimized for mobile use since I don’t sit at a desk to run this business.

How I built it

HTML/CSS/JS hosted on GitHub Pages for the storefront — free hosting, fast to iterate on. Supabase runs the backend: orders table, authentication, and inventory tracking. Paystack handles payment processing. The admin dashboard is a separate authenticated view into the same Supabase data, built for one-handed mobile use.

Challenges I ran into

Keeping the entire stack free or near-free while still being production-grade was the constant tension. GitHub Pages plus Supabase’s free tier plus Paystack’s pay-per-transaction model meant I could launch with zero infrastructure cost — but it meant designing carefully around each platform’s free-tier limits from day one.

Accomplishments that I’m proud of

Shipping a live, revenue-generating storefront with zero outside funding and zero dev team — every decision from brand identity to backend schema was mine alone.

What I learned

How much design and engineering overlap when you’re a team of one. I couldn’t hand off the “make it look good” part to someone else, so I had to actually learn brand consistency, not just functionality.

What’s next for Klutch Konnect E-Commerce Platform

Full Paystack integration completion (currently finalizing the account linkage), plus expanding the product catalog as Klutch Farms’ poultry operation scales.
