I believe it's a dressing up of oscommerce isnt it ? I might be wrong...
All functions for page generation, template use, database functions and so on are kept in their old included folders, so theres a nasty little learning curve where you seem to have to track through a dozen pages to find how to make a small change, and it's constantly confounding how the laudable principle of modularity so often has to be hacked around by uncommented nests of ternary operations. Once you figure out the peculiarities and functions of it all, skinning it up and writing custom pages and functions isnt really that difficult. Sorry to be so vague as to be useless, but just dive into the package with a proper coding app and it soon becomes clear how unclear it is.

its fairly modular and easy to configure and run. lots of add ons and enhancemnts for it as well.
ok to use for a small to medium size shop. lots of hosting co. have it pre installed and ready for you.

Its okay, if your in the US its an advantage as its all set up for that. Aviod 'template' programs as the one we bought was rubbish - have the pages witihin the site didn't work with it. Create your own. Is tought to make it not look like a zen cart cart tho...

Certainlty wouldn't recomend it to anyone. If its a small shop agora cart is slightly less headache creating, in my exp.
