Reaction is an event-driven, real-time reactive commerce platform built with JavaScript (ES6). It plays nicely with npm and Docker, and is based entirely on JavaScript, CSS, and HTML.
Reaction’s out-of-the-box core features include:
- Drag-and-drop merchandising
- Order processing
- Payments
- Shipping
- Taxes
- Discounts
- Analytics
- Integration with dozens of third-party apps
And, since anything in our codebase can be extended, overwritten, or installed as a package, you may also develop, scale, and customize anything on our platform.
reaction-cli installation
npm install -g reaction-cli
reaction init
cd reaction
reactionReaction requires Meteor, Git, MongoDB, OS Specific Build Tools, and (optionally) ImageMagick. See our Requirements Docs for requirements installation information.
For more information on setup and configuration, check out the installation and configuration docs.
If you are interested in participating in the development of Reaction, that's really great!
Our community guidelines can be found in our documentation. This is a good place to start getting more familar with Reaction.
The Reaction Gitter channel and forum are good places to engage with core contributors and the community.
For a high level review our roadmap, take a look at the Reaction features page.
For a kanban-esque, hardcore, real time progress overview of all Reaction Commerce projects use our project board.
Testing is another great way to contribute. If you do discover a bug, create an issue to report it.
Integration tests can be run at the command line with reaction test. Use npm run-script test-local to run local tests.
The Reaction documentation source is located in the reaction-docs repository, while the documentation site is the reactioncommerce/redoc application.
We require that all releases are deployable as Docker containers. Athough we haven't tested out other methods of deployment, our community has documented deployment strategies for Heroku, AWS, Digital Ocean, and Galaxy.
Docker images are pushed when Reaction sucessfully builds and passes all tests on the master or development branches. These images are released on Reaction Commerce Docker Hub. There are two images available: reactioncommerce:prequel - the latest development image and reactioncommerce:reaction, the master image.
Want to contribute? That's great! Here's how you can get started.
