Integrating multiple third-party services such as Cloudinary for image management, Stripe for payment processing, and Clerk for authentication posed significant integration challenges. Coordinating the functionalities of these services while maintaining a seamless user experience required thorough testing and meticulous debugging.
Our application heavily relies on image processing tasks, optimizing performance became paramount. We faced challenges related to processing large images efficiently, ensuring responsive user interactions, and minimizing server load. Through careful profiling and performance tuning, we were able to optimize critical code paths and implement caching strategies to improve overall application performance.
Ensuring cross-browser compatibility proved to be challenging, particularly when dealing with CSS and JavaScript inconsistencies across different browsers. We encountered issues with layout rendering, styling discrepancies, and JavaScript functionality. By leveraging modern CSS techniques and employing browser testing tools, we were able to identify and address compatibility issues effectively.
