Throughout this project, I gained deep expertise in PHP and WordPress development. I mastered the WordPress theme and plugin architecture, learning to extend WordPress functionality while maintaining compatibility and performance. Building custom PHP solutions taught me server-side programming best practices, security considerations, and efficient MySQL database design.

The project challenged me to implement modern frontend techniques like glassmorphism, creating visually stunning interfaces with backdrop-filter effects, gradients, and smooth animations. Integrating WooCommerce for e-commerce gave me hands-on experience with payment processing, inventory management, and customer data handling. Using Selenium for automated testing improved my quality assurance skills across the WordPress ecosystem.
