eCommerce Project

I'm developing an ecommerce store right now with CodeIgniter and I think it's really not a bad choice, the really important thing about building stuff on CI is that it frees you of two huge hurdles you run into with most other e-commerce frameworks:

1. Lack of flexibility.
2. Learning curve for the framework.

Once I finish up this e-commerce site I'm actually planning on releasing a good portion of the stuff I create as open source, because I think that e-commerce frameworks should be a whole lot more like CI. I've worked with oscommerce, zencart, squirrelcart and magento, but every single one of them makes way too many assumptions about what you want to do with your ecommerce store. Between SEO, content management and extras (custom pages suited to your site) it takes more time to reconfigure them to work the way you want, than it does to start from CI and build your way up.

Hopefully in the next month or so I'll have an e-commerce framework for CI that I can share with you guys.
