thirty bees

thirty bees is an open-source fork of PrestaShop 1.6. Our aim with this fork is to provide a feature set that merchants need. We are rewriting a lot of the core modules and cleaning up the legacy code. We aim to provide a stable, feature-rich e-commerce platform to grow businesses.

Roadmap for thirty bees to version 1.0.0

Overview of the general goal:

To launch version 1.0.0 of the thirty bees core around February 1st 2017. In this version we are striving to fix as many bugs as possible, while maintaining compatibility with existing themes and modules. We want to provide the stablest platform for current users to migrate into.

New Features being added into v1.0.0 of thirty bees:

• Ability to add CSS from the back office
• Ability to add JavaScript snippets from the back office
• Enhanced Favicon / device icon support
• Full page caching in the core, with the following caching mechanisms:
  • redis
  • memcache(d)
  • APCu
  • file system

Native Modules:

Native modules will be refactored to remove legacy code. Code that supports previous PrestaShop versions will be removed and refactored to support PHP 5.5 - PHP 7.1.

Rewritten modules:

• PayPal will totally be rewritten
• Authorize.net will be refactored

New native modules:

• MailChimp sync
• Stripe (Credit cards, Apple Pay, AliPay, Bitcoins)
