About the Project
Salexom is a headless e-commerce platform for delivering blazingly fast, dynamic and
personalised shopping experiences. It enables you to create great-looking online stores
which
have all the features modern webshop should have. Take advantage of an admin dashboard
to
manage products, people, and functionalities. You can use Salexom whether you are a
small,
midsize or enterprise-level retailer with a physical or digital inventory.
If you decide to use Salexom, your webshop will be available as both a typical online
store and
as a PWA application. The latter means that your customers will be able to browse the
store
offer and do shopping offline and with no internet connection.
Salexom is an open-source platform written with Python, React, Django and GraphQL.
Salexom offers:
● Ability to use your favourite tools – you can
integrate Salexom with
favourite tools
you already use like CRM, CMS or fulfilment API thanks to GraphQL API.
●
Front-end freedom – you can either use the default PWA storefront,
JavaScript SDK
or build a client from scratch in the language or platform you prefer. In other words,
you can decouple the front-end layer from business logic.
●
Flexible products – you can set up products as they are and integrate them
with
accounting and inventory management systems. Some of product configuration

○
Groups – this feature will make your online store more intuitive and easier
to browse through thanks to grouped products
○
Configurations – it doesn’t matter what you sell because Salexom helps you by
providing the flexibility of products configuration

wherever
you want to thanks to:
