Alt Storefront

This project aims to provide a more customizable storefront for the Saleor e-commerce platform. It's based on Ant Design and Umi in order to make it easy to extend and customize, and also to reduce the complexity of the codebase. This project is still in its infancy, but you're welcome to experiment with it and give feedback and suggestions.

Features

  • Clean minimalistic design, responsive layout
  • Easy theming and customization using LESS variables
  • Configure home page layout by stacking preset sections
  • Integration with MeiliSearch to provide blazing fast search suggestions
  • Support for the brand new Google Ecommerce analytics (GA4)
  • Good performance, small build chunks... Be sure to check out our demo
  • Multi-language support, PWA superpowers, SEO, and more

Stack

To simplify development and to allow for easy customization, we've chosen the following tools.

  • ✨ Ant Design as UI framework
  • 🔥 UmiJS as app framework
  • 🛠 ReactJS as underlying UI technology
  • 🪂 Typescript for safety
  • 🚀 Apollo as GraphQL client
  • 🌊 DvaJS (based on redux) as a supporting data framework

Getting Started

Follow the Getting Started guide on the wiki.

Here are the commands for running and building the project. Install dependencies

$ yarn

Start the dev server

$ yarn start

Build app bundle. Note that Chrome browser is required.

$ yarn build

Configuration

Refer to the Configuration page on the wiki.

Customization

Refer to Theming and Customizing the Home Page on the wiki.

Translating

All visible UI strings are set up in locale files to enable easy translation of the UI to different languages. Currently, only English and French (Google Translate quality) are available. Other languages will be slowly added after reaching a stable version. When that time comes, we'll likely need your help with the translations 😉

Development Guide

We're fans of yarn. We recommend it over npm as it will allow you to have the exact same dependencies as specified in our lock file.

Generate GraphQL types for typescript whenever you modify a GraphQL query or mutation.

$ yarn codegen

Run unit tests to make sure things are in working order.

$ yarn test

Run end-to-end (e2e) tests to make sure the pages are working properly. This requires you to have the Chrome browser installed on your machine.

$ yarn test-e2e
