commerce VS base web

There are several open source solutions if you're interested... you can do a headless frontend with Vercel Commerce (Next.js) and use any of the supported e-commerce backends to manage catalog/cart/orders/etc: https://github.com/vercel/commerce

You need to use Medusa or Saleor as the backend (they are open source headless ecommerce backends). There already exists an amazing boilerplate and fully functional app for both of these: https://github.com/vercel/commerce

Hey everyone, I stumbled upon an intriguing website recently, built using Shopify, the platform notorious for its sluggish performance. However, to my surprise, this particular site managed to achieve a perfect 100 score thanks to NextJs. I know this community is well-versed in website performance, so I thought I'd share it with you all. To be honest, I've been pondering the significance of speed when it comes to the success of online stores. Can a few milliseconds really make or break a business? We often hear the phrase "Milliseconds Make Millions," and I wonder if it holds true in reality. What are your thoughts on this? In today's digital landscape, it seems like everyone is using Shopify, making it the go-to platform for setting up an online store. But is being the fastest fish in the pond the key to outperforming the competition? Does speed truly matter when it comes to customer experience and ultimately achieving financial success? I'm genuinely curious to hear your insights and experiences regarding the impact of website speed on online businesses. Do you believe that optimizing every millisecond can lead to substantial gains, or is it more of a minor factor in the grand scheme of things? Let's have an open discussion about the role of speed in the success of Shopify sites and how it aligns with our experiences and beliefs. I invite you to share your thoughts and contribute to this conversation. No sales pitches or hidden agendas, just an honest exploration of the topic. Looking forward to hearing your perspectives! Best regards, CuriousRedditor

Next.js has an official e-commerce template here: https://github.com/vercel/commerce

This is great, especially as Next.js commerce has decided to go shopify only - https://github.com/vercel/commerce/pull/966 - making a full open-source solution impossible.

Vercel also have an example for it. https://github.com/vercel/commerce/tree/main/packages/swell

Base web https://baseweb.design/ or Material UI https://mui.com/

Great, thank you! There are many I've already found at first look. Which design system do you think is the best? I always look for the ones that come with code, like Uber's Base and IBM's Carbon Design System both built with React.

I've also played around with Base which has much more flexibility but takes a little more work to use.

We used Base Web to benchmark Ladle and latest Storybook v6.4.19. Base Web is a complex component library and has about 350 stories. The Storybook uses the default bootstrapped settings. The test is made on MBP 2018, i7 2.7 GHz. The time is measured in seconds and less is better.

A standout example of these is Base Web (in npm as baseui), a design system and UI library created by Uber to help devs create beautiful, device-agnostic apps. Base Web consists of a series of React components and is designed to be “reliable, accessible, and extensively customizable.”

Base Web! By far the most underrated UI library, which is open sourced and maintained by Uber. Visually it’s unopinionated because it’s meant to be overridden, and has a nice API for overriding every aspect of it with a robust theming config.
