Archived visual artifacts from the original Idol Shopping Network (ISN) e-commerce platform (2021–2022).
Idol Shopping Network (ISN) was a Philippine multi-vendor e-commerce marketplace and mobile application launched in 2021, featuring live shopping, celebrity and merchant endorsements (prominently featuring media figures such as Raffy Tulfo and local store owners), and nationwide cash-on-delivery services.
The client application was built using React Native compiled to Hermes bytecode (Hermes Bytecode v84), communicating with a remote JSON REST backend.
Purpose of This Emulator: Because the original backend services went offline, this server emulator was reverse-engineered to implement the exact protocol contracts, endpoints, and SQLite database models required to breathe life back into the mobile app for research, preservation, and interoperability.
All categories, products, varieties, and ads are queried dynamically via SQLite with zero hardcoded arrays.
Precision-engineered schemas to satisfy all React Native Redux Toolkit thunks, slice reducers, and property accesses.
SQLite WAL journaling and prepared statements for fast execution on embedded hardware (DietPi, Raspberry Pi, Linux).
Distributed openly to facilitate client-server protocol research, debugging, and mobile app preservation.
Standardized JSON contracts for mobile clients, catalog querying, and administrative operations.
