Introducing The Bullish Shop!

For those who have been following me for a while, I’ve migrated the shop several times. It started out on Shopify, then Cypher, and now in what I think will be its final form — my own progressive web app (PWA).

I want to give a special shout to nostr:nprofile1qqsvswpas8wjgsr8gkmggzd7grt8y8pszq55vsr8lnzs5fwalyfe2jgqdff53 and his nostr:nprofile1qqsfmd476kacwlqe920d9qrwazqrxpm3flwy85p2y3sj50qcexcvfmc4y69w0 project hub for the spark that caused me to leave Shopify. The easy-to-use template really simplified the transition and opened my eyes on what can be done with #Bitcoin and #Nostr.

As I developed my skills, I kept wanting to make more customizations. Having my own website was inevitable as I’m able to build from the ground up exactly the way I want it. I’ve started off with a streamlined UI that makes it easy to add items to the cart. Checkout is powered by a few of my favorite tools — nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0s8jq7y6 Hub, nostr:nprofile1qqszm52qe2qdkc4u7dma0klx3532jka2g8geck6fwxncyp90wktq2xssynh8t, and Bitcoin Connect.

To celebrate this milestone, I’ll be zapping 3333 sats back to whoever makes a purchase and replies with their order ID (it should in the invoice description). I will get your size and shipping info via DM/SimpleX.

Congrats 🥂 🥳 looks amazing 🤩

Thanks! 🤙

Our next step should be to ditch the vercel and cloudflare deployment environments 🫡🤘

Yes! I’d like to try to do that one day. Any suggestions/tips would be appreciated. 🫡

Well most frameworks Next, Nuxt, Sveltekit allow for a static build of your web app, mix this with a deployment flow like Nsite and your there basically you deploy your website straight to blossom servers.

I’m slowly working on this with the https://nsite.cloud site.

That looks cool af, might try it out with a simple site. Would an intermediate step be a VPS and regular domain? Most of my deployments have been with Vercel so I don’t quite know how it works. 😄

It’s still very much UI and prototype now so don’t expect to much to work 😄 but yes a traditional webserver ( vps & Nginx / apache ) would be intermediary step to deploy a static site. I’ll try and put in some hours to clean up a simple deploy repo and instructions hopefully by next week ✌️

Looking forward to it! 🔥

wen 1 click install? ;) i'm ready to ditch shopify too

You are tech savvy enough for a multi step install 😂

I am low on brain cycles, and am about to have a brain fart 💨 😂. halp

Haha my general advice there would be to open a window 😂 you work animal ! 🫂

This is for in person sales, right? I can't seem to find a "Ship-To" unless I pay first?

This is one of those ship-before-it’s-ready deals. 😂

But yeah, that’s next on my list. For now, I’ll reach out manually to collect shipping details. 🤙

good luck and i am interested to know how that works out. Shipping integration is a royal pain depending on what you're sending. I could do with 1 less shopping cart integration in my life. lol

Oh, I think I see what you mean. Everything is free shipping if that helps. 😎

internationally? or just in the US?

International. 🧡🤙

dope. what kind of shipping deal do you have to get flat rate? tell me its not UPS or USPS

It’s not flat. I just pay for shipping whatever the cost. Might not be the best method for profit. But for customer experience, I think so. 😎

oof. I sure hope so. shipping by Fedex next day air vs 2 day is a wide gap, nvm international. I always have to pin down the shipping pretty hard, if its for time sensitive materials. of course its okay if it takes a week or two for a t-shirt.

Ah yea, that makes sense.

The spark. 🧨
