What is Moltin?
Moltin is an ecommerce API designed to help developers build scalable online stores quickly and efficiently. At its core is a modular architecture that allows developers to integrate only the specific ecommerce functionality they need for their project.
For example, Moltin can handle basic functions like cart and checkout, product management, inventory tracking, and order processing out of the box. Developers don't have to build those core pieces of ecommerce infrastructure from scratch. Instead, they can focus their time and resources on creating great customer experiences and customizing the store to match their vision and brand.
Some key features of Moltin include:
- Modular components for cart, checkout, payments, products, orders, etc.
