What Is Vanilo?
Vanilo is an E-commerce Framework for Laravel. It's like Magento or Sylius.
Is It Ready For Production?
NO, NOT AT ALL. Vanilo 0.1 is a TECHNOLOGY PREVIEW.
Refer to Release Notes for more details.
Why Another E-commerce Package?
Shortly, because in 2017 there was no decent one especially for Laravel. There's a slightly longer article on medium about why it came to life.
