Hello everyone,
I was wondering if NextJS is appropriate for an e-commerce store. I've built 3 on PHP with Laravel from scratch but I was wondering if that would be possible in NextJS as well without a headless cms or e-com platform. I want to build a whole store from the ground up, no platform linked and just building a storefront.
Is there anything I should look for? I'm planning to use NextAuth for authentication, mongodb as a database with prisma and vercel for deployment because my current hosting provider won't provide nginx and nodejs.
Thanks for reading

I think next is a good solution. You can use it for a good UX for example with parallel routes or with SSG pages. Also everything is handled on the server, so you can control which data the client has. Like that the customer can't change any prices or anything else. So if I would create a E-Commerce Shop, I would (and currently) do it with nextjs @Madeiran sardinella

I don't need help, I'm just asking if NextJS is a good solution for an e-commerce website and if there's anything I need to look out for

Thank you!
I current have an e-commerce platform built with Laravel but I was just wondering if it's worth it to switch to NextJS since I'm currently learning it and I think so far it's a great framework and there's a lot of possibilities with it
