Magic.dev + E-Commerce Store

Built a e-commerce store with Magic.dev?
We'll make it production-ready.

E-commerce apps handle money and personal data — there's zero margin for error. AI tools build great-looking product pages and shopping carts, but the critical details — inventory management, payment security, order processing, and shipping calculations — need professional attention before you take real orders.

E-Commerce Store challenges in Magic.dev apps

Building a e-commerce store with Magic.dev is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.

Payment security and PCI compliance

You're handling credit card transactions. While Stripe and similar services handle PCI compliance on their end, your integration must not expose card data, must verify webhook signatures, and must handle failed payments gracefully.

Inventory management

What happens when two customers buy the last item simultaneously? AI tools don't implement inventory locking or race condition prevention. Overselling damages trust and creates costly fulfillment problems.

Order processing pipeline

Orders move through states: pending, confirmed, processing, shipped, delivered. Each transition triggers actions (emails, inventory updates, accounting entries). AI tools build the checkout but not the order lifecycle.

Shipping and tax calculation

Real shipping costs vary by weight, destination, and carrier. Sales tax varies by jurisdiction. These calculations need to be accurate and up-to-date — getting them wrong is either illegal (tax) or margin-killing (shipping).

Performance under load

Product launches and sales events spike traffic. Your site needs to handle 10x normal load without crashing. Image optimization, caching, and CDN configuration are essential for a fast shopping experience.

Common Magic.dev issues we fix

Beyond e-commerce store-specific issues, these are Magic.dev patterns we commonly fix.

highCode Quality

Complex implementations that are difficult to maintain

Magic.dev's ability to generate large, multi-file implementations means it can produce sophisticated code that works but is hard for human engineers to understand, debug, or extend.

highSecurity

Security decisions made at scale without explicit review

When Magic.dev generates an entire feature spanning many files, security decisions — API authentication, data access patterns, input validation — are embedded throughout without a clear review surface.

mediumCode Quality

Over-engineered solutions for straightforward requirements

Magic.dev tends toward comprehensive, extensible implementations. Simple CRUD operations may receive complex abstraction layers, generic type systems, and plugin architectures that add maintenance burden.

mediumDeployment

Dependency on Magic.dev's specific AI model for future changes

Complex generated codebases are easiest to modify by re-running Magic.dev with updated prompts. This creates dependence on continued access to their service for ongoing development.

Frequently asked questions

Can I build a e-commerce store with Magic.dev?

Magic.dev is a great starting point for a e-commerce store. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but e-commerce stores have specific requirements — payment security and pci compliance and inventory management — that need professional attention before launch.

What issues does Magic.dev leave in e-commerce stores?

Common issues include: complex implementations that are difficult to maintain, security decisions made at scale without explicit review, over-engineered solutions for straightforward requirements. For a e-commerce store specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for payment security and pci compliance.

How do I make my Magic.dev e-commerce store production-ready?

Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Magic.dev-built e-commerce stores, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.

How much does it cost to fix a Magic.dev-built e-commerce store?

Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger e-commerce store projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
