How to implement a online store?

Which technologies, tools and programming languages would you use?

This seems to be quite common interview question and i would like to know how would HN people answer to this!

With counter questions of course: number users, number of product, what backoffice (whitelabel shipping?) already exists. I18n (languages, currencies, shipping providers, payment providers). Level of customization and editorial control needed etc etc.

I'd say if it comes up in an interview you should answer it how you'd answer it. That'll save a lot of time.
