Proof of concept (Ecommerce)

We’ve been exploring how React and Bubble can work together, so we built a proof of concept for an eCommerce store.

In this setup, React handles the front end while Bubble manages authentication (login & signup), product data, and overall business logic. We also included front-end caching to improve performance.

This approach allows you to combine the power of a custom React front end with the simplicity of Bubble’s backend, making it easier to build scalable and dynamic applications without sacrificing flexibility.

Just sharing this idea with the community—excited to see how others might use this combination! :rocket:

Why use Bubble over Xano or Supabase as a backend if you won’t use Bubble as a front-end? If one has the experience / know-how to use React, then they can almost definitely work out Xano/Supabase.

We find Bubble easier to use, especially as it continues to evolve with AI and automation, making development even more seamless over time.

It also has a large ecosystem of plugins and tools, making it more user-friendly and flexible for building powerful applications.

Supabase is kinda difficult to grasp once you start working with webhooks :slight_smile:
