• Frontend: Blade templates or Vue.js/React SPA; styled with Tailwind CSS or Bootstrap for responsive design.
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB 8.0+ (or PostgreSQL optional) for robust data management.
• Search & Caching: Elasticsearch or MySQL Full-Text Search; Redis for cache & sessions to speed up performance.
• Server Requirements: Nginx/Apache, HTTPS enabled (SSL), Composer, Node.js (for assets), PHP extensions (cURL, mbstring, JSON).
• Optional Integrations: AWS S3 for media storage, RabbitMQ/Queue for background jobs, CRON for scheduled tasks (inventory sync, email queue).

Technical insight: The system is designed with modular architecture and layer separation: API endpoints for storefront, admin panel, background worker for heavy tasks — providing scalability and maintainability suitable for enterprise growth.
