John Mendez is a pragmatic full-stack software engineer with eight years of experience building and maintaining high-performance web systems, from e-commerce demos to consumer games and local SaaS. He founded and shipped Figuresgame.com, a responsive daily number-puzzle platform, and previously launched a production Elixir/Phoenix-powered wash-and-fold service, demonstrating both product and operational chops. Comfortable across cloud-hosted stacks (AWS), CLI-driven workflows, and front-end UX polish, he has contributed checkout and payment improvements to Commerce.js demo stores and authored a Vue component library to standardize merchant dashboards. Equally at home in Agile teams or solo founder mode, he blends a developer-first approach with practical product sense and a habit of learning by building.
Commerce demo store built for the Jamstack. Built with Commerce.js, Next.js, and can be one-click deployed to Netlify. Includes product catalog, customer login, categories, variants, cart, checkout, payments (Stripe) order confirmation, and printable receipts.
