The challenge
BioWell's WooCommerce theme was slow and dated, and with a catalogue of more than 4,000 products every page felt heavy. They wanted a modern, fast shopping experience, but the team runs the whole business inside WooCommerce and couldn't afford a risky platform migration.
What I built
I built a headless Next.js storefront in front of their existing WordPress/WooCommerce store. Products, prices, stock and checkout still live in WooCommerce, so the team works exactly as before, while shoppers get pre-rendered pages that load instantly. The design was built pixel-for-pixel from the approved prototype.
Key features
