Dependency Updates Breaking Headless Functionality in Laravel: What to Watch Out For

[Vihan Richard]

Hey community,

I’m currently evaluating different open source eCommerce platforms for a client project that needs full customization, vendor scalability, and a developer-friendly stack. Platforms like Bagisto, WooCommerce, and Magento Open Source are in consideration, especially for their flexibility and modular architecture.

We’re aiming to build a feature-rich open source eCommerce marketplace with multi-vendor support, secure payment integration, and a modern frontend (possibly using Vue.js or React).
Some of my core concerns include:

• How well do open source e-commerce platforms handle performance at scale?

• Is headless commerce setup smoother with open source options?

• What has been your experience with RESTful APIs and mobile app integration?

• Which platform provides better community support and plugin ecosystem?

If you’ve recently deployed or customized an open source ecommerce solution, especially one that supports marketplace architecture, I’d appreciate your insights—especially regarding devops workflows, upgrade cycles, or hosting preferences.
Let’s talk about what’s working in Current situation—and what isn’t—when it comes to open source eCommerce!
