Good afternoon,
After trialling ~20 CMSs, I have decided that none are extensible
enough for my project, and that a web-framework is best.
Of the various web-frameworks, Catalyst and DJango seem to be the most
powerful, and also have the most pre-built extensions.
My question to both users-groups is, how mature are your e-commerce modules?
I am building a meta e-commerce store (so an e-commerce store of
e-commerce stores), so it's very important that the e-commerce modules
we extend are already quite mature.
The kind of feature we will be adding in (or using, if already implemented):
- Multiple payment gateways
- Order lifecycle (i.e. keep client in-the-know of how close there
order is to delivered)
- Ability for store to allows client to pick between "pay on pickup",
"pay on delivery" "pay online", but to also limit these choices to
just, i.e. "pay online"
- Multiple stores linked to the 1 shopping-cart (even across multiple
payment gateways)
- Pre-built modules to assist in building mobile apps
Which framework should I go with, and which modules would you
recommend I install?
Thanks for all suggestions,
Alec Taylor
