Snipcart is a developer-centric, flexible e-commerce solution. After injecting a snippet of JS to your project, you can define products directly in your HTML. All of your e-commerce logic can effectively be handled in the frontend, which makes it easy to integrate in web apps, static sites, or even old school CMS.

Hey PH, I’m Francois from Snipcart! 👋 Our product lets you add e-commerce to any site in minutes. It’s HTML/JS-based and works with tools you love: SSG, headless/traditional CMS, JS frameworks, SPA, etc. In this version, we focused on our client-facing JS shopping cart : - It doesn’t depend on any third-party libraries in the global scope (bye jQuery). We used modern tools like Vue.js, but worked hard so you don’t have to deal with them while integrating. - This new design is sober, built to fit most websites with little changes. We followed best UX practices for a conversion-centric checkout flow. Also used a mobile-first approach. - We made it easier to inject your aesthetics through the checkout. From colors and animations to adding or deleting fields, you can do lots of stuff. We now have an HTML-like syntax making it easy to play with cart components. - You can easily override templates for a full-page cart, a small, centered modal, or a slide-in, right-sided one, etc. Snipcart still offers a hosted dashboard for store management: discounts, abandoned carts, payment gateways, shipping, invoicing, multi-currency, taxes, & more. We have an SDK coming up, and a couple features to reach v2.0 parity, but this version is 100% ready to hit production. 🚀 Feel free to check out our new documentation! Snipcart is forever free in Test mode. https://docs.snipcart.com/v3/ We’re offering a discount for Product Hunters—hit the website via this product card to get it. Happy to answer questions! 🙇‍♂️

@the_fln Hi Francois: Congrats ! ..... Do you already have the snipcart v3.0 plugin for joomla? I am currently using the plugin with V2.0

@jcasoft Thanks 😊 Unfortunately, we are not the ones developing third party plugins for Snipcart - so I can't answer your question precisely. Maybe contact the Joomla plugin creators directly?

Hey! Good job to the Snipcart team. The new design feels really good and I'm sure I won't be the only one to appreciate the removal of jQuery dependency :) Is there a list of features missing for v2 parity somewhere?

@olivier_rousseau1 Thanks for the kind words! We're so stoked that jQuery isn't a dependency anymore. Yes, we do have a list of features we still have to implement, you'll find them at the bottom of this page: https://docs.snipcart.com/v3/

?makers How would you recommend going about using Snipcart + an SSG + a headless CMS to create a store with hundreds of products? I read a few of your tutorials on pairing Snipcart with Hugo, Jekyll and 11ty, but all of them use a store with only a couple of products as a demo. What happens when you need editors to be able to upload products in bulk (perhaps by importing a CSV file)? Which headless CMS would you recommend for such a use case?

@anna_0x Good question! If the attributes needed for Snipcart products (https://docs.snipcart.com/v3/set...) are already modelled inside your headless CMS, you could probably upload products in bulk in the CMS using a JSON or CSV file. Looks like this could work with Sanity and DatoCMS: - https://www.sanity.io/guides/gui... - https://www.datocms.com/docs/imp... Maybe a bit more work involved with Strapi, from what I'm reading quickly: - https://github.com/strapi/strapi... - https://strapi.io/blog/how-to-cr... These are the CMS we often recommend, but there are tons of other very cool tools like Statamic, Ghost, GraphCMS, Directus.

@anna_0x @the_fln thanks a bunch for the suggestions! This gives me a good starting point for further research! I'll look into each of them. Sidenote: Funny how the Sanity and DatoCMS guides are literally the same, word for word, only Sanity used cat breeds as an example and Dato dog breeds 😅😅
