Why move away from a subscription platform

On a subscription platform, you pay every month, often a commission on your sales, and your data stays with the vendor. With Sylius Starter, your store and your data stay with you.

Sylius Starter

  • ✓No platform subscription, no commission on sales
  • ✓Your store and your data belong to you
  • ✓Switch partner, host or solution whenever you want
  • ✓Adjust the features to your business

Subscription platform

  • ✕The subscription goes up with your revenue
  • ✕Transaction fees and paid apps every month
  • ✕Exporting your data is limited to what the vendor allows
  • ✕The roadmap is up to the vendor

Are you a developer?

Sylius Starter is a set of Castor commands (wait, what is Castor?) around a standard Sylius project. You create a project, then add or remove features as your needs evolve. Your project stays standard: any Symfony team can pick it up.

  • –sylius:init creates the project: Docker, Sylius, database, assets, fixtures and tests.
  • –sylius:add installs, configures and migrates a plugin. sylius:remove takes it out again, configuration and migrations included.
  • –sylius:theme:setup switches the whole store theme, removing the previous one first.
  • –sylius:menu:remove hides the back-office entries you don't need.
