Before → After: refinement and acceleration of the online store

The project came to me after several previous developers, and the store was in critical condition: slow performance, numerous errors, instability, cart failures, issues with the product card, and conflicting modules.

My task is to turn chaos into a functional, fast, and stable online store.

== What was “Before”:

* slow page loading
* incorrect filter functionality
* errors in the console and PHP
* conflicting modules
* cart and checkout freezes
* layout breaks on mobile
* duplicate scripts
* heavy images
* lack of caching
* unstructured code
* lagging interface

As a result, the store was losing customers, and the website owner was losing money.

== What was done (After):
1. Technical audit and code cleanup

- identified and resolved module conflicts
- removed unnecessary duplicate scripts
- optimized template structure
- fixed logic errors in the cart and checkout

2. Website acceleration

- configured caching
- minified JS and CSS
- reworked heavy functions
- optimized images
- fixed blocking scripts
- improved Google PageSpeed / GTmetrix scores

After optimization, the store started loading noticeably faster.

3. UX and interface improvements

- improved responsive version
- fixed product card display
- adjusted filters
- reworked incorrect buttons/blocks
- improved logic for tab transitions

4. Increased stability

- cleared errors in logs
- updated and configured modules
- reduced the number of requests
- eliminated bugs that caused freezes

== Result (After)

The website started working:

- faster
- more stable
- neater
- clearer for the user
- safer for the owner

The client gained the ability to further develop the project without fearing that something would "crash."
