simpleCart(js) is a lightweight, standalone JavaScript shopping cart library that can be added to any website with basic HTML. It handles cart state, item management, and checkout (e.g., PayPal) entirely client-side without requiring a database or backend programming.

Use cases

• add a shopping cart to a static HTML website
• sell a few products without setting up a backend or database
• integrate PayPal checkout into an existing site quickly
• build a lightweight e-commerce page with just HTML classes
• customize cart columns, tax, and currency in a client-side cart

When to choose

• you have a simple or static site and need a quick, no-backend shopping cart
• you want PayPal-based checkout without server-side code
• you prefer configuring the cart via HTML classes and basic JavaScript

When to avoid

• you need a full e-commerce platform with inventory, orders, or user accounts
• you require server-side cart validation or modern payment gateways beyond PayPal
• you want an actively developed library with recent maintenance and security updates
• your stack avoids legacy dependencies like jQuery, Prototype, or Mootools
