django-oscar 0.4.4

A domain-driven e-commerce framework for Django 1.3+

Domain-driven e-commerce for Django

Oscar is an e-commerce framework for Django designed for building domain-driven sites. It is structured such that any part of the core functionality can be customised to suit the needs of your project. This allows a wide range of e-commerce requirements to be handled, from large-scale B2C sites to complex B2B sites rich in domain-specific business logic.

Case studies

Oscar is still in active development, but is used in production by a range of companies, from large multinationals to small, boutique stores:

Tangent projects:

• Tata Group - http://www.landmarkonthenet.com

• Carlsberg - Their global “We Deliver More” platform is powered by Oscar (but is a B2B site so it not browsable by the public).

• The UK Labour party - http://shop.labour.org.uk

Many more on the way. If you use Oscar in production, please let us know.
