React Commercejs Hooks
A library of React hooks that can be used to integrate Commerce.js and interface with the Chec Dashboard.
Overview
The Commerce.js SDK offers an efficient way to integrate e-commerce functionalities into your applications using a context provider. By leveraging the CommerceContext, developers can easily access essential data from the Chec API, ensuring a streamlined user experience. This setup allows you to utilize various hooks for managing checkout processes effectively.
Setting up the SDK is straightforward, requiring only the wrapping of your components in the CommerceContext. With a few simple props, such as your Chec public key and debug options, you can get started quickly. The library also contains numerous hooks specifically designed for checkout, which can be implemented within a CheckoutProvider to enhance the e-commerce experience.
