Single Page Applications (SPAs) have gained popularity due to their responsiveness, interactivity, and enhanced development experience. However, they often fall short in terms of SEO, performance, and user experience. Modern server rendering frameworks have been crafted to overcome these shortcomings, offering a range of optimisations.
In this prime era of e-commerce, possessing a user-friendly, optimised, and visually appealing website isn’t just a bonus—it’s imperative. This is especially true for bookshops. Here’s why:
We have now implemented a setting that lets stores show not only that the title may be out of stock, but that it is on order and available to purchase. Quantities can also be included. Additionally, if an item is out of stock and not on order, customers can also order the item. If stores prefer NOT to allow this kind of ordering then the ‘Notify Me’ setting can be applied.
