@jonchoi Nectar was a good attempt. Checkout @benmorgan and Ryal. Still could be a good starting point for something.

It's a real shame that all of the opensource e-commerce efforts with Elixir/Phoenixframework have been discontinued again. But there are closed source stores with the Phoenixframework, so in principle Elixir is well suited for this, I think. For me, the biggest problem is the extensibility with plugins, on the one hand on template level, on the other hand generally on the level of business logic. Often in PHP solutions, for example, Twig is used, there are quite fine-grained blocks (several hundred) used in the templates, which you can extend in their own plugin very specific, I see in the Phoenixframework no solution for this, partial templates are much too coarse.
