Ecommerce plugin that turns a WordPress site into a store, aimed at developers extending and customizing the platform themselves.
WooCommerce is the ecommerce plugin for WordPress, and this repository is the monorepo where it is developed together with the packages, tools and extensions around it. It is where you read the source, follow open issues and track ongoing work, not where shop owners download a release.
Every plugin, package and tool in the tree carries its own manifest and scripts, and most carry their own setup notes. PNPM manages the JavaScript side and pins the Node version that each script runs under, while Composer handles dependencies for the PHP packages and plugins.
A few things are worth knowing before cloning it.
- Prerequisites: Node.js, PNPM, PHP 7.4 or newer and Composer all need to be present first.
- Two commands: an install with a frozen lockfile followed by a build prepares every output for development.
- Repository layout: plugins, packages and tools sit in separate directories, with internal packages marked by a prefix.
- Operating system: a POSIX system is assumed, and Windows work is expected to go through WSL.
- Issue tracker: reserved for core bugs, since support runs through the forums, the community Slack and the self-help guides.
Security issues are disclosed through a HackerOne program rather than public issues. Contributions are welcome through the contributing guide, and the development blog is the recommended way to follow where the project is going.
A Next.js e-commerce template wired to Stripe, written for developers who let AI coding tools do much of the building.
Your Next Store is an open source storefront template for Next.js, powered directly by Stripe. It removes the weeks usually spent assembling products, variants, carts and checkout, and it is written on purpose so that coding agents can extend it without inventing their own conventions.
The stack is Next.js 16 with the App Router, React Server Components and the React Compiler, Bun as runtime and package manager, Tailwind CSS v4, Shadcn UI, TypeScript and Biome. A Commerce Kit SDK exposes typed methods such as productBrowse and cartUpsert, so the contracts an assistant needs are already defined.
Several choices exist mainly to make automated edits land correctly.
- AGENTS.md: project context, SDK examples, lint rules and a validation checklist agents read before writing a line.
- Stripe-native: checkout, billing and subscriptions go straight through the Stripe API.
- Theme branches: 149 ready-made themes live on their own branches, each a redesigned homepage over the same core.
- CLI scripts: trigger a production publish or call any Store API endpoint using only the store API key.
- Baseline defaults: prerendered chrome, optimizer-served icons and WCAG-AA color tokens, checked by the build and test commands.
Getting started is a clone, a Bun install and an API key in a local environment file. Node 24 and Bun 1.0 are the prerequisites, and the result deploys to Vercel in one click or self-hosts wherever you like.
