In this short blogpost you'll learn about Medusajs the opensource Shopify alternative.
Medusa is based on Node.js and the web framework Express medusajs is hosted on GitHub and written in TypeScript.
Medusa itself is based on three components:
Medusa Server
Admin dashboard
Storefront
Howto install Medusa?
Medusa provide a quickstart method to install a Medusa server which assumed you have Node.js and Git installed on your system.
First we install the Medusa-CLI:
npm install @medusajs/medusa-cli -g
Create a new Medusa project:
medusa new my-medusa-store --seed
Start you Medusa server:
cd my-medusa-store
medusa develop
That's all we need todo to run our Medusa server locally.
Medusa provides different storefronts which are based on Gatsby or Next.js we'll cover in later parts howto setup a storefrontend.
