E-commerce development
Online stores built around your catalogue and your customers
Whether you sell fashion in many sizes and colours, food made to order or regulated products, the store should make the right product easy to find and the order easy to complete.

Custom storefront design
A store that looks like your brand, not a template, and works on every screen size.

Hosting, security & backups
HTTPS, hardened admin access, monitoring and nightly backups from day one.
Mobile apps
CrystalMindShop: a shopping app connected to the store
A Flutter mobile app for nopCommerce stores. It uses the same products, prices, customers and orders as the website, so nothing has to be maintained twice.
The screens below are real screenshots from an Android test build (7 October 2026), using a test account and a sample catalogue. A public download is not offered yet, and no iOS build is published.
Shown working in the app
- Home, search and category browsing
- Product options with price changes
- Wishlist and cart
- Sign-up, sign-in and saved addresses
- Checkout with shipping and payment methods
- Order confirmation and order history
Connected through a custom store API
A nopCommerce plugin gives the app its own secure API: signed tokens, sign-out on every device, and automatic token revocation when a password changes. Version 1.0.2 is deployed on a demo store.

ERP & integration
Connect your store to the systems that run your business
An online store is only as good as the data behind it. Integrations keep items, prices, stock and orders consistent between e-commerce, ERP and point of sale, so teams stop re-keying and customers stop seeing wrong stock.
Illustrative. The real architecture depends on your systems, data volumes and how often data must change.
What the integration layer handles
- Item & variant sync
- Price sync
- Inventory sync
- Order transfer
- POS & retail data
- API integration
- Middleware
- Scheduled background jobs
- Retry handling
- Error logging & alerts
- Data mapping & transformation
- Reconciliation reports
Systems and where they stand
Honest status for each system: what has been demonstrated, where the experience comes from, and what can be built new for you.

AI & automation
AI assistants that know your business and know their limits
Custom assistants and agents designed for defined tasks, using your approved information. They support your team; they do not act unchecked.
Customer support agent
- Answers frequent questions
- Explains products and services
- Retrieves approved shipping and return policies
- Helps customers find relevant products
- Collects inquiry details
- Hands complex requests to your staff
Sales assistant
- Understands what the customer needs
- Recommends products from approved information
- Explains differences between products
- Captures sales inquiries
- Helps staff organise incoming leads
Internal business assistant
- Searches approved business documents
- Summarises operational information
- Answers employee questions
- Retrieves authorised data from connected systems
- Produces structured summaries and reports
Company knowledge assistant
- Product catalogues and specifications
- Manuals, PDF and Word documents
- Internal policies
- Approved knowledge bases
- Authorised business data
Your knowledge, not a model trained from scratch
Most business assistants do not need a custom-trained model. With retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), the assistant searches your approved documents and data at question time and answers from what it finds, with sources. The right approach depends on the use case, the quality of your data, security requirements and the infrastructure available.
Built-in safeguards
- Authentication and role-based access
- Data access limited to what each user may see
- Defences against prompt injection
- Input and output validation
- Careful handling of sensitive information
- Logging and monitoring
- Human approval for consequential actions
Running example: Shop Assistant
On the Dejavu ShoesStore demo, a guided assistant turns requests such as “black sneakers size 40 under 3000” or “سنيكرز مقاس 39” into the store's own filters and shows matching products with live stock. It is deliberately bounded: read-only, no checkout, no personal data, and no API key in the browser.
AI & automation
Workflow automation
Repetitive work such as copying orders, sending updates and compiling reports can run on its own, reliably and with an audit trail. Automation platforms such as n8n connect your store, ERP, email and messaging tools, with custom code where a platform is not enough.
- Less repetitive manual work
- Faster information flow
- Better visibility
- Fewer avoidable errors
- More consistent operations
Example workflows
These are example designs to show what can be automated. They are not claims of systems already running for a client.
-

My focus is the point where business processes meet systems. I care that what is delivered actually runs, that the data is right, and that your team can rely on it every day.
