In this book, you will learn how to: Master Core E-commerce Concepts: Understand the essential business models (B2C, B2B, D2C), key features like product catalogs, shopping carts, and order management, and the fundamentals of the e-commerce technology stack. Build a Professional Development Environment: Set up a robust local environment using modern tools like Docker, Composer, Git, and various web servers, configured specifically for high-performance e-commerce development. Deep Dive into Three Leading PHP Platforms: Magento: Grasp its powerful, modular architecture. Learn to build and customize themes, develop custom modules using plugins and observers, and leverage its command-line tools for efficient management. WooCommerce: Master the art of extending the world's most popular e-commerce plugin. You'll learn to use hooks (actions and filters) to customize functionality, override templates for unique designs, and develop your own plugins within the WordPress ecosystem. Sylius: Discover the flexibility of this Symfony-based framework. Learn to leverage its decoupled components, customize state machines for business logic, create custom plugins, and build modern, API-first e-commerce solutions. Implement Essential E-commerce Features from Scratch: Product & Inventory: Manage complex product types, attributes, and variants, and implement robust stock control with multi-source inventory concepts. Payments & Shipping: Integrate popular payment gateways like Stripe and PayPal, ensuring PCI compliance, and configure complex shipping rules and tax calculations. Orders & Customers: Handle the complete order lifecycle, manage customer accounts securely, and ensure GDPR/CCPA compliance. Customize and Extend with Confidence: Go beyond the basics by modifying checkout processes, adding custom fields, integrating with third-party APIs (ERPs, CRMs, PIMs), and tailoring each platform to specific business needs. Optimize for Performance, Security, and Search: Implement advanced caching strategies (Varnish, Redis), optimize database queries, and profile code to build lightning-fast storefronts. Apply security best practices to protect against common vulnerabilities like XSS and SQL injection and harden your store. Master SEO techniques, from structured data for products to integrating powerful search tools like Elasticsearch. Embrace Modern, Headless Architectures: Learn to build API-driven (REST & GraphQL) e-commerce solutions. Connect modern frontend frameworks like React or Vue.js to a powerful PHP backend, using tools like Magento's PWA Studio or the Sylius API-first approach. Test and Deploy Like a Pro: Implement comprehensive testing strategies, including unit, integration, and end-to-end testing. Build automated CI/CD pipelines for reliable deployments and learn to scale your application for high traffic. Make Informed Platform Decisions: Use a detailed comparison and decision-making matrix to confidently choose the right platform-Magento, WooCommerce, or Sylius-for any e-commerce project.
