I am curious to learn if anyone is using Meteor for e-commerce. Are there any good open source e-commerce projects that work well with Meteor? Or should one just stick to the good old regulars like Shopify and Woo and work with them over API?
We have become so fast in building within Meteor that I dread the idea of building out anything with native frontends in Shopify, Woo or any other platform for that matter.
https://saleor.io/ looks good.
I am building now an e-commerce with Meteor. I bought (a license for) a platform made with NextJS and I am meteorizing it.
I could have just built the API on a Meteor server and keep the front end on NextJS but because I build multiple platforms and I need to embed components of e-commerce and marketplace in multiple places and I want to identify the user in the e-commerce, I preferred to do a full conversion. For instance the shop administration by the vendors is done from a business platform (on Meteor) not from the e-commerce platform.
The first 3 shop layouts here: https://strada.activitree.com/ have a demo (as migrated from the original platform). The SSO is already implemented although there are no features to show that.
I think e-commerce is an amazing place where Meteor projects can fill in with a less expensive offering than Shopify, with a better visual, more customization, more integrations with local less costly payment providers, and a better POS for the brick and mortar shops.
