Mondal's E-Commerce is a production-oriented multi-vendor marketplace built with Laravel 13 and PHP 8.3+.

| Mondal's E-Commerce — Laravel storefront and admin |
Developed by ANSNEW TECH, the project uses MVC with service classes, Spatie Laravel Permission for roles, a modular plugins folder, Laravel Sanctum for API tokens, Vite for front-end assets, and optional Docker Compose or Kubernetes (K3s) deployment examples. Source code: github.com/needyamin/mondals-ecommerce
What is Mondal's E-Commerce?
It is a full marketplace engine, not a single-store demo. Vendors apply or are onboarded by admin; products and orders tie to vendors where relevant; the platform owner oversees operations through a dedicated admin panel and reporting.- Multi-vendor catalog and vendor dashboards
- Customer storefront: browse, cart, checkout, orders, profile, wishlist
- Central admin: catalog, orders, users, vendors, payouts, CMS, themes, plugins
- REST API v1 under
/api/v1(Sanctum) for mobile or headless clients - Extensible plugins and themes under
plugins/andresources/themes/
Architecture
- Presentation: Blade views, Tailwind-oriented UI (Vite:
resources/css,resources/js) - Application: controllers, services (checkout, cart), helpers for business math, media, theme
- Data: MySQL via Eloquent, migrations, factories, seeders
- Extensions: first-party plugins autoloaded from
composer.json

Technology Stack
| Layer | Details |
|---|---|
| Runtime | PHP 8.3+ |
| Framework | Laravel 13.x |
| Auth / API | Laravel Sanctum, REST /api/v1 |
| Permissions | spatie/laravel-permission |
| Frontend | Vite, npm |
| Database | MySQL (see .env.example) |
| Deployment | Docker Compose, scripts/setup-server.sh, scripts/deploy.sh, optional k8s/ |
REST API (v1)
JSON endpoints under /api/v1 cover auth, categories, products, cart, checkout, orders, wishlist, and addresses. User routes require Sanctum tokens.
- Public: register, login, categories, product list and detail by slug
- Authenticated: profile, addresses, orders, wishlist, cart CRUD, coupons, checkout, vendor apply
- Stores:
GET /api/v1/storesandGET /api/v1/stores/{slug}
The API shares the same backend as the Blade storefront, suitable for mobile apps or SPAs.
Domain Model
- Users — authentication, profile, Spatie roles (customer, vendor, staff, admin)
- Vendors — store profile, slug, commission, approval status; products belong to vendors
- Products — categories, brands, variants, inventory, pricing, marketplace approval fields
- Orders — line items with price snapshots, status history, payment and shipping fields
- Money flow — vendor earnings from order lines; admin payouts to settle seller balances
- Coupons — percentage, fixed, or free-shipping discounts at checkout

Setup and Deployment
Local
git clone https://github.com/needyamin/mondals-ecommerce.git cd mondals-ecommerce composer install && npm install && npm run build cp .env.example .env && php artisan key:generate php artisan migrate --seed && php artisan storage:link php artisan serve
Docker
cp .env.example .env docker compose up -d --build docker compose exec app php artisan migrate --seed
Default ports: app http://localhost:8000, phpMyAdmin 8088, MySQL 3388.
Ubuntu Server
Run scripts/setup-server.sh, then ./deploy.sh for Docker-based deploys. Optional GitHub Actions deploys over SSH via Cloudflare Tunnel.
Plugins and Themes
Plugins live under plugins/<name>/ with PSR-4 autoload. Admins can upload, install, enable, disable, and configure each plugin without forking core code. Themes upload and activate from the admin panel for white-label or seasonal storefront skins.
Business Logic
Shared helpers in app/Helpers/business_calculation.php handle cart totals, tax, shipping, coupons, and vendor commission so storefront, checkout, and reporting stay consistent.
Security
- CSRF on web forms; role middleware for admin, vendor, and active users
- Validated requests, hashed passwords, Sanctum for API
- Secrets in
.envonly — never commit production credentials
Demo Data
Running php artisan migrate --seed populates roles, users, vendors, products, orders, CMS pages, and menus. Check README.md for default login credentials and change them before any public deployment.
Conclusion
Mondal's E-Commerce is a cohesive Laravel 13 marketplace with multi-role access, vendor economics, admin tooling, plugins, REST API, and deployment paths from local Docker to server scripts and optional Kubernetes. It suits learning marketplace patterns, portfolio demos, or as a base for regional multi-vendor launches with local payment and shipping plugins.
