The project included the design and implementation of the online store, as well as technical maintenance and support. The goal was to build a permanent online store for Karelia, to be used in teaching and as a sales channel for student enterprises.

The result is a secure and user-friendly online store with a clear admin panel, comprehensive marketing and reporting tools, and the ability to manage user permissions and set up new shops. The platform supports various payment methods, automated accounting and customer communication, and it meets the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation and the accessibility criteria of the WCAG standard.

The design emphasised ease of use, both from the end customer’s point of view and from that of the practice-enterprise entrepreneur. The end result is a multi-vendor online store where students get to practise working as online merchants.
