Server API discussion #55

Closed 4seer closed 4 years ago

4seer commented 4 years ago

Provide your propositions on the server API we should use.

Our current vision is to pick up one of the open source e-commerce platforms available there:

  1. WooCommerce
  2. Magento Community
  3. Presta Shop

Join discussion to identify the best platform to start with.

I visited API doc pages of these sites and found that PrestaShop wants developers to define API by themselves. This option seems to be too difficult in our case IMHO. So I am against Presta Shop. I like WooCommerce documentation form. It is clear and easy to use and understand. https://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-rest-api-docs/#introduction So as for me, I would prefer WooCommerce

Additionally, I want to mention that we can start with one of these projects, but then can add others (even written by ourselves)

Besides that WooCommerce seems to have one of the biggest communities. And, yes, having a clear documented API is a big advantage.

I have read this blog which provides a comparison between these platforms and i also checked the APIs and its documentation, I too think WooCommerce will be an excellent choice.

rkBoahene commented 4 years ago

WooCommerce has a comprehensive api documentation compared to magento, so i'd suggest we go with that.

4seer commented 4 years ago

So let`s proceed with WooCommerce.
