## What it is
WooCommerce is a free, open-source ecommerce platform built as a WordPress plugin, letting users turn any WordPress site into a fully customizable online store. This repository is the monorepo containing the core plugin, packages, and development tools.

## Use cases
- build an online store on wordpress
- sell products online with self-hosted ecommerce
- migrate from shopify to an open-source platform
- customize checkout and payment flows
- manage products, orders, shipping and taxes
- develop woocommerce extensions and plugins

## When to choose
- you already run WordPress and want to add ecommerce
- you need full control over data, hosting, and checkout with no platform fees or revenue share
- you want a highly customizable store with a large extension ecosystem

## When to avoid
- you want a fully managed, zero-maintenance hosted store like Shopify
- your project has no WordPress dependency and you prefer a standalone ecommerce stack
- you need a headless-only commerce API without a CMS
