Vue Storefront Api
Vue.js storefront for Magento2 (and not only) - data backend
Overview
The REST API backend for vue-storefront provides a backend service for Vue Storefront, allowing data access to the product catalog via ElasticSearch and enabling users to place orders into the order queue supported by Redis queue. Vue Storefront itself is a standalone Progressive Web Application (PWA) storefront that can connect with various eCommerce backends through APIs. The project is open source and aims to enhance the shopping experience while also providing a solid code base for developers working on front-end applications for eCommerce.
Features
- Data Access: Provides access to the product catalog through ElasticSearch.
- Order Placement: Allows users to place orders into the order queue, supported by Redis queue.
- Open Source: Vue Storefront is an open-source project focused on improving the shopping experience.
- Performance Optimization: Utilizes Vue.js for front-end, Node.js + Express (with potential GraphQL support) for server-API, and Elastic Search for database, ensuring optimal performance.
- PWA Support: Full Progressive Web App support for offline capabilities.
- Express
Express.js is a simple Node.js framework for single, multi-page, and hybrid web applications.
- Eslint
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.
- Graphql
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.
- Typescript
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.
