If a level of customization is absolutely required then of course that's
the way to go.
I did understand the question, if wasn't that complex. The original
objective was "I'm interested in developing some personal eCom sites
based on OFBiz". The beauty of OFBiz is the comprehensive data model and
service layer, all great stuff. The problem is that it is not
out-of-the-box-ready for building systems. BigFish solves that (for
eComm) and allows the building and configuration of eCommerce sites in
very short order.
Robert: either way, welcome to OFBiz!

Hi Robert:
Having worked on many OFBiz based ecommerce applications (both large
and small), I agree with Paul. Copy over and use the OOTB webapp as a
guide to move forward with your own customizations.
Best of luck.

Hi Robert,
that really depends on what you are set out to do. In general, I
recommend
to copy the eCommerce app over to hot-deploy and get the module to
run from
there. Then check it into your local repository to keep it
consistent. With
SVN you can use svn:external for instance to include your own module
while
keeping the rest of ofbiz consistent with the svn trunk. Then you can do
your own changes and commit to your local repository at any time.
Does that help or were you looking for something else?
Regards,
Paul
P.S.: I don't think that Nick understood your question - BigFish
certainly
isn't the answer
