Snipcart: Changing the E-Commerce Game for Developers

QUÉBEC CITY, Oct. 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Snipcart makes selling online easier--and more fun--for developers.

Unlike many e-commerce solutions, it lives on your site, in its HTML client-side code, hence why it became a JAMstack darling for frontend developers.

Their newest shopping cart (v3.0) gives even more freedom to developers:

    --  Tech-agnostic platform: Snipcart doesn't depend on third-party libraries
        like jQuery in the global scope. It uses modern technologies like
        Vue.js, but doesn't require framework-specific knowledge from
        developers.
    --  Optimized default checkout: This new universal design fits most websites
        with minimal changes. It follows best UX practices for a
        conversion-boosting checkout flow. It was also designed mobile-first.
    --  Flexible theme customization: The new version lets you add fields and
        visuals easily. With an HTML-like syntax for all cart components, you
        can customize all checkout steps.

Snipcart is a bootstrapped team of geeks from Québec City. By catering to developers, they made a name for themselves in the competitive e-commerce landscape. They now count thousands of users across the world.

    --  They're official Stripe Partners and have been cited as a go-to
        e-commerce solution for developers by the likes of Netlify, Vue.js
        Developers, and Wes Bos.
    --  Their co-founders spoke at VueConf Toronto, JAMstack_conf NYC, and
        Web2day Nantes.
    --  They have written over 300 technical tutorials to help developers learn
        and build online shops. Their GitHub profile counts 100+ free,
        open-source code repositories with live demos.

It's been a wild ride. In the beginning, industry giants like Shopify used to scare me out of my mind. But today, we've proven that by helping a specific niche inside a huge market (freelance and agency developers), you can build a profitable, independent business--and have fun while you do it. -- Francois Lanthier Nadeau, CEO, Snipcart

How Snipcart works

    1. You add the shopping cart to your site with a simple JavaScript snippet.
       It's similar to adding a script like Google Analytics.
    2. You create products by adding simple HTML attributes--product name,
       price, description, etc.--to a "buy" button.
    3. You manage orders within a user-friendly merchant dashboard.
