Static concept preview · storefront incomplete
GardenerDirect
Keep a catalog selection separate from an accepted order.
The storefront concept connects product browsing with a reviewable request. Product versions, requested quantities, pricing and the outcome of a submission have different responsibilities.
This page uses one newly fictional product and original illustrative code. It is not a live catalog or checkout. The complete persistent storefront is not available here.
The intended workflow
The stages below explain the concept. They cannot be performed on this static page.
Browse a current catalog
Filters and product details describe the version of the catalog that was loaded. This preview supplies no catalog service.
Record a requested quantity
A selection can carry a stable product identifier, a bounded quantity and the product version it was based on.
Obtain an authoritative quote
A server must check current products, availability and pricing. A client-supplied request is not a quote or stock reservation.
Confirm an exact outcome
A submitted request needs an authoritative result. An unknown outcome must not be presented as a completed order.
A fictional request line
Original synthetic data
- Product
- Synthetic plant A.
- Identifier
sample-plant-a.- Product version
4, an illustrative version.- Requested quantity
2. No stock is reserved.- Quote and order
- Not requested. No price, total, transaction or order result is calculated.
This product is fictional. No customer, real product record, product photograph or historical commerce result is represented.
Keep the request narrow
The original example returns only the product identity, quantity and version. Its quantity range is illustrative. Authoritative pricing, stock and order decisions are outside this function.

// Original illustrative example, version 1.0.0.
// The line records a request; it does not establish price or availability.
export function makeRequestedLine(product, quantity) {
if (!Number.isInteger(quantity) || quantity < 1 || quantity > 10) {
throw new Error("The example accepts quantities from 1 through 10.");
}
return Object.freeze({
productId: product.id,
quantity,
productVersion: product.version
});
}

Architecture concepts
Separate read and write models
Catalog data supports browsing. A request should carry only the fields required for review, rather than copying a client-computed price into an order.
Check versions explicitly
A product can change after a page loads. A version identifier gives the authoritative service a specific state to compare before it acts.
Preserve uncertain outcomes
A missing response is not proof that nothing happened. Order completion and any retry require a defined result and recovery protocol.
What this preview does not provide
- The full storefront remains incomplete. No working catalog, cart, checkout, authentication or persistent backend is offered on this page.
- No order, payment, quote, stock reservation, crawler, provider request or customer-data operation is available or invoked.
- The fictional request line is authored explanatory data, not a replay, executed storefront result or acceptance of a transaction.
- The illustrative function omits schema and identity validation, authorization, pricing, availability, transport and persistence. It is not a production checkout implementation.
- Earlier bounded component work does not establish a complete integrated storefront, current HTTP persistence, production performance or live commerce.
