A GraphQL-powered, NextJs-based, PWA storefront for Saleor. IMPORTANT: This project is [DEPRECATED] in favor of saleor/react-storefront soon to become our default demo and storefront starter pack.
The Saleor Storefront is a GraphQL-powered, PWA, single-page application storefront for Saleor. It is a headless e-commerce storefront built with GraphQL, Apollo Client, React, Next.js, and Typescript. The storefront provides a seamless single-page application experience and includes integration with the Saleor GraphQL API.

Next.js is a React-based web framework that enables server-side rendering, static site generation, and other powerful features for building modern web applications.
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
Styled Components is a popular library for styling React components using CSS syntax. It allows you to write CSS in your JavaScript code, making it easier to create dynamic styles that are specific to each component.
Apollo is an open-source platform for building GraphQL APIs that connects with any data source. It provides a powerful set of tools and features for developers, including client and server-side caching, real-time data synchronization, and a seamless integration with popular frontend frameworks.
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
A website that uses GraphQL as a query language to manage data fetching and state management. This includes features such as a strongly typed schema, client-side caching, and declarative data fetching to streamline data management and optimize website performance.
PostCSS is a popular open-source tool that enables web developers to transform CSS styles with JavaScript plugins. It allows for efficient processing of CSS styles, from applying vendor prefixes to improving browser compatibility, ultimately resulting in cleaner, faster, and more maintainable code.
A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a type of web application that uses modern web technologies to provide a native app-like experience to users, including offline functionality, push notifications, and device hardware access. PWAs can be installed on a user's home screen and launched like a traditional app, but do not require a separate app store listing or download.
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
Webpack is a popular open-source module bundler for JavaScript applications that bundles and optimizes the code and its dependencies for production-ready deployment. It can also be used to transform other types of assets such as CSS, images, and fonts.
