eCommerce Project

Unless you really need all the (in my opinion bloated) functions of an off-the-shelf-one-size-fits-all ecommerce solution - AND you're familiar with CI already ... then why not go ahead and write your own ecommerce system with CI?

Think of what really constitutes an ecommerce site ...

* A list of products (usually organised into categories)
* A cart/basket so the visitor can add and remove items from it
* A shipping calculator
* A checkout
* An order history/process

Unless I've missed something that's all you need for a basic ecommerce system. Anything else will be 'add-ons' to enhance the system.

The beauty of making your own is that you will know exactly how to customise it when the client (as they inevitably do) asks for tweaks!

Hope that helps ?
