Vue Storefront - An Open-Source PWA Solution For eCommerce That Makes You Stand Out

Shorten Your Time To Market And Delight Your Customers

Vue Storefront is – as the name suggests – an open-source eCommerce frontend Vue.js application used to display the eCommerce platform to the user in a performant, neat way. It’s a lightning-fast frontend platform and battle-tested bodiless set of modular features that can be easily connected to various eCommerce backend applications in a glimpse of an eye. As it’s an independent frontend application (progressive web app), you can scale it separately just to fit your needs.

All you have to have is an API layer exposed like REST or GraphQL in your platform and install (or prepare) an integration package to this storefront UI itself. Modern shops usually need to use various third-party tools, and this technology helps you connect them to your solution seamlessly, thanks to low coupling and high cohesion.

Currently, the supported version is the Vue Storefront 2.

When do you need it? - Familiar businesses' issues

Long time to market

Vue Storefront provides hundreds of modules for all common functionalities, which are ready to be used. It masters things like mobile-first, offline access, and high-performance. Its Storefront UI library makes it easy to build beautiful interfaces by customizing components in no time.

Slow shopfront

Nowadays almost nobody likes to wait, so it’s crucial to have a fast and performant page. Some estimates say that up to 1% of users will leave your website for every 100ms of delay in page load.. Vue Storefront reduces the page loading time to a minimum thanks to lazy charging, lazy hydration, extensive buffering, and reasonable preloading.

Unresponsive and unattractive (front-end) look

User experience is a key factor that affects the whole user’s satisfaction. Vue Storefront provides interfaces that have a great user experience and work smoothly out of the box. What's more, there are no restrictions on adjusting the store user interface by extending, replacing or adjusting specific components.

Bad app architecture

Tired of technologies no one knows? Your vendor lock-in? Choose the solution based on popular technologies. Great components for the greatest developer experience.

Complicated migrations

Vue Storefront is platform agnostic and headless/composable-oriented, meaning it could be connected to any backend and fit any migration strategy.

No mobile website version

Do you know that more than 50% of web traffic is mobile? If you don’t have a proper mobile version for your online shop, you can lose conversion. Vue Storefront solves this issue with its PWA experience, which looks and behaves like a native mobile app. PWA is fast, reliable, and engaging even with poor Internet connectivity.
