Vanilo v0.1 was the very first Vanilo release ever. Consider it as a TECHNOLOGY PREVIEW.

This version is not yet ready to create applications with. Feel free to discover it, play with it, and submit issues on github.

#What's in it:

• Concord (foundation for customizing E-commerce components)
• Customers
• Products
• Cart
• Checkout
• Orders
• Admin
  • Users
  • Acl (permissions, roles)
  • Extendable

Please note that Vanilo as of v0.1:

• lacks many features,
• features are incomplete,
• there are shortcuts, bugs, TODOs and other nasty things in the codebase,
• even basic concepts are subject to change,
• 0.1 is not intended to be upgradable to v0.2.

Beginning with version 0.2 Vanilo provides a documented upgrade path up to the 1.0 stable release.

For more details on future releases refer to the Roadmap.
