easier-to-deploy-storefronts

What problem does it solve?

Non-technical solo operators like pet sitters, tutors, and freelance editors need a professional web presence with editable content and customer inquiry management, but lack the budget or technical skills to maintain a custom site after the initial deployment. This skill eliminates the need for the developer to stay involved after launch by giving the owner direct control over prices, copy, and bookings through a passwordless magic-link interface.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Multilingual marketing site: A 3-language (EN/ZH/ES) landing page with shared structure and edit-in-place CMS hooks on every section, so the owner can update copy and prices directly on the live page.
• Passwordless owner auth: A magic-link flow powered by Resend that issues 30-day session tokens, includes a "logged-in devices" panel with sign-out-everywhere, and never exposes raw API keys to the owner.
• Unified inbox with translation: Ingests customer inquiries via a contact form, auto-translates between Chinese and English using OpenRouter, and provides an AI assistant ("泡泡") for reply suggestions and stats.
• Self-managed photo gallery: Owner uploads photos from their phone with client-side compression, stored in Convex File Storage with a cap on the most recent images, plus a bulk-upload script for historical archives.

Quick Start

Use the easier-to-deploy-storefronts skill to build a complete multilingual storefront with owner inbox and passwordless authentication for a solo service business by following the ten-phase construction playbook that coordinates Vercel, Convex, Resend, and OpenRouter into a single deployable template.
