What this system is

What we needed to solve

The company needed a professional online presence to showcase its cosmetic products, build brand trust, and provide clear access to product details, partner pharmacies, and career opportunities.

03The Solution

How we shipped it

Developed a responsive brand website using Next.js and React with dynamic routing for products, reusable components, and clean UI sections. Integrated maps, forms, and structured content to support business growth and brand visibility.

16Technical Decisions

Why we chose what we chose

Decision 01

Built on Next.js, React, TypeScript.

Mature ecosystem, strong typing where applicable, and predictable performance characteristics for the workload.

Decision 02

REST-first integration boundary.

Keeps clients (web, mobile, partner) decoupled and trivially swappable without coupling to a single transport.
