Very nice! I'm looking to do a simple store just like this for a physical craft and was considering options. Could you explain or link more to how you used Heroku?

Je pense qu’il serait meilleur de partager votre code ici, la communauté sur HN ne volera surtout pas votre code !
(Je m'excuse si mon francais n'est pas sans faute, il faut que je le pratique.)

Thank you for showing us your project, Jacob ! It looks really cool.
I think it would be better to share your code here as the HN community HN won’t be stealing your code!
