bertles86 Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi folks, I'm a total noob with OS Commerce implementation, although I have used the CMS side of things commerically. I'm a software developer, and have started developing an e-shop with xhtml/php/mysql etc but OS Commerce seems like it could be a better route as I wouldn't need to develop the CMS for my client! So where to I begin? I see the installation guide stickied at the top as quite straightforward, but I have questions: -Does OSC replace all of my development and build front end layouts, databases, cms etc? -Or does it just supply a database with cms, and I integrate it into my current page design in xhtml/css? Can anyone understand where I'm a bit confused as to where OS Commerce comes in? I can't get my head around if it is a total solution, or an integrated addition to current page development? Any help setting me straight would be grand, thanks. Bert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
