CrowCommerce Medusa TailwindUI
Headless commerce template — production-grade Medusa v2 + Next.js storefront.
01Problem
Headless commerce templates tend to be either bare-bones starters or over-engineered demos. Real production e-commerce needs a template that ships with payments, search, observability, and tested deployment patterns out of the box.
02What I built
A production-oriented headless commerce template pairing a Next.js storefront with a Medusa v2 backend. Includes Stripe checkout, webhook integrations, analytics, search, end-to-end testing, and deployment patterns.
03Highlights
- 01
Next.js storefront + Medusa v2 backend wired via Turborepo
- 02
Stripe payments + webhook handling, idempotent order flow
- 03
Meilisearch product search, Cloudflare R2 media storage
- 04
Playwright e2e suite covering checkout golden path
- 05
Sentry + PostHog instrumentation; Resend transactional email
04Outcomes
- Shipped as a public, deployable template — live demo at medusa.crowcommerce.org and open source on GitHub.
- Checkout runs end-to-end on Stripe with idempotent webhook handling, guarded by a Playwright golden-path suite.
- Production defaults ship in the box: Meilisearch search, Cloudflare R2 media, Sentry + PostHog instrumentation, and Resend transactional email.

06Status
Production-oriented template.
07What this demonstrates
E-commerce engineering: payment integration, webhook reliability, search infra, observability, end-to-end testing, multi-service deployment.
08Author's note
Headless commerce is mostly an integration problem, not a frontend problem. The wins are idempotent webhook handling, e2e coverage on checkout, and observability in production.
