I am currently working on a fully responsive ecommerce project for a client and the tools and technologies I am working with and how beneficial they are to Developers. 
Just a brief introduction to this, I would like to explain each of the tool before talking about their benefits. So here we go: 

Next.js 13 App Router: It is a feature of the Next.js framework, which is a technology used for server-side rendering and building React applications. 

React: It is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It is a popular technology used for creating dynamic and interactive web applications. 

Tailwind: It is a utility-first CSS framework that provides pre-built CSS classes to style web applications quickly and efficiently.

Prisma: It is an ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tool that simplifies database management by providing a type-safe query builder and data modeling capabilities. 

MySQL: It is a popular open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) used for storing and retrieving data in web applications.


Now that we know what these tools/technologies mean, let's go to their benefits:
