A domain-driven e-commerce framework for Django
Project description
Domain-driven e-commerce for Django
Oscar is an e-commerce framework for Django designed for building domain-driven sites. It is structured such that any part of the core functionality can be customised to suit the needs of your project. This allows a wide range of e-commerce requirements to be handled, from large-scale B2C sites to complex B2B sites rich in domain-specific business logic.
Further reading:
Sandbox site (an hourly build of the unstable master branch - it’s experimental but feel free to explore and get a feel for the base Oscar install. Polished demo site coming soon)
Documentation on the excellent readthedocs.org
Google Group - the mailing list is django-oscar@googlegroups.com
Transifex project - translating Oscar made easy
Continuous integration status:
Oscar was written by David Winterbottom (@codeinthehole) and is developed and maintained by Tangent Labs, a London-based digital agency, with help from Mirumee.
Screenshots
These are a few screenshots from the ‘sandbox’ example site that ships with Oscar. It sports a simple design built with Twitter’s Bootstrap. It provides a good starting point for quickly building elegant e-commerce sites.
The sandbox site is also available to browse at http://latest.oscarcommerce.com
You can have this sample shop running on your machine in 5 commands.
