SilverCart 3 released

Finally the wait is over: SilverCart 3 is available for download. This is a huge milestone for us and we have put tons of work into SilverCart as you can see in the changelog at the end of this post. But wait, we're not done yet!

Even though we have a lot of ideas we really wanted to be included in this major release, we decided to publish SilverCart 3 anyway. The idea is to release smaller improvements more frequently.

You can download SilverCart 3 neatly wrapped in full package with the SilverStripe framework and all the modules you need to set up SilverCart quickly. If you want to integrate SilverCart in your current SilverStripe 3 project, just take the modules you need from the package and skip the rest.

We know that this is not up to the standard git and composer workflow experienced SilverStripe developers are used to. Since our infrastructure is based upon mercurial, we'll have to establish processes to publish future releases via github and have them pulled in via composer. Along with that we need to rethink our bugtracking workflow. Until we have solved this, we hope you can get along with full download packages and our forum for support and filing bugs.

What has changed?

Most obviously, SilverCart runs on SilverStripe 3.3.1. That means, that all the improvements and features from SilverStripe are part and parcel of SilverCart. The shiny new improved backend and the performance improvements might be the first things you'll notice when logging in to your SilverCart admin area. We also added numerous hints for fields in the admin area, so you'll have to consult the documentation less frequently. Another improvement is a general clean up and re-organization of settings and configurations to improve the general user experience in the administration area.

As for the frontend, we decided to switch from YAML (the css framework, not the markup language) to bootstrap and also updated the default theme to reflect this evolution. We heard you, you non-german developers! The new color switcher to change the main colors of the theme was also a frequently asked improvement. Changing the pre-defined color schemes just as easy as hitting the select button and saving your changes. More customizing options will follow with future releases.

Head over to our new demo store and give it a try!

The data model has not changed fundamentally except for the product variations. This module has been completely rewritten to handle both product attributes (like attributes used for a filter) and product variations (like different sizes and colors as SKUs with different product numbers, prices and stock amounts) more intuitively and will be released later.

Upgrading

This is a major release, so upgrading from older SilverCart versions is not trivial. A good starting point would be one of the numerous upgrade guides from SilverStripe 2.x to 3.x. As for the template, I'd say it depends on the level of customization of your project when it comes to deciding whether upgrading your old theme or starting over with the new theme is the best option. If you are totally stuck somewhere in between or don't even know where begin, you have always the option to get professional support from us.

Roadmap

As I said before, we're not done yet. We've held back some features and improvements to avoid further delays, so we will refine and release them soon. We also learned that we have a technical debt to pay, so we'll work on our infrastructure to make future updates as easy as possible for you.

In a few days, we'll delete all old hosted demos. Even though we have hosted hundreds of demo installations, we have no plans to offer the hosted demo like we did it before.

Instead, we'll offer a hosted version of SilverCart with a free, self-terminating 30 day period. After 30 days you can decide to use SilverCart with a paid plan or - by default - have your installation deleted after a grace period. We won't ask any personal or payment details until you decide to go with the paid plan, so basically we are offering a free 30 day hosted demo with the option of using it in production in a paid plan.

Of course SilverCart remains open source under LGPL and you are free to download and use it without any additional fees.
