I'm a computer science student, and I'm building a website for a jewelry store. I'm getting paid $3k for this project and have spent the last two months working on the frontend using Next.js, which is almost finished. However, I'm a bit unsure about the backend choices. I was considering using headless WooCommerce, but I find the options confusing. I've never tackled a project like this before, but I know JavaScript pretty well. I need advice on various backend options to research for a store that will feature around 50 products. The requirements include creating products, user accounts, cart functionality, and payment integration. I'm also getting an additional few hundred dollars per month for maintenance and planning to implement a CMS for easy product management.

Have you thought about using WordPress? It’s free, open-source, and super customizable, making it a solid choice for your project. It might save you a lot of headache and work compared to headless solutions.
Headless eCommerce can be tricky for a first project. Instead, consider Shopify; it’s especially well-suited for a jewelry store. They handle a lot of the heavy lifting, and you can focus on customizing the frontend.
