I'm building an order entry and tracking system for a Food Co-op for their case and special orders. We don't need the system to be on-line (at the moment), but many of the system requirements are already present in many existing e-commerce solutions (product catalog/search, order entry screens, order tracking/history, etc.)
Initially, I was thinking of building the system from scratch using web2py or Django. (The RoR Spree project looks pretty interesting, too - but I'm already writing a product/customer ETL in Jython and don't want to balance the two languages - both Python and Ruby are new to me.) Web2py doesn't have any existing e-commerce project, so that lead me to look at Django/Satchmo. I'm guessing the Satchmo customization necessary is probably on the order of 20-30%. The question is whether that 20-30% customization is going to be more of a headache than rolling my own clean order-entry and tracking system with nothing extra I don't need. Has anyone had a similar experience they can share? I would be especially interested in anyone's experiences with customizing/extending Satchmo. Thanks in advance for any tips. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group. To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com.
