Our take on Commerce Layer
Commerce Layer is very developer friendly. It's really easy and fast to get going. Good documentation, guides & How-To's.
One thing that first strike you is the concept around a product catalog. A product catalog is central in most commerce systems, but you can't really say that with Commerce Layer.
They have another approach which they say clearly: Commerce Layer is Commerce Only, not anything to do with Content or Content Management - for that you need, yeah, surprise, a Content Management System, a CMS.
Instead Commerce Layer uses a minimal data model - focus is on simplicity and speed. Instead of Product Catalogs, Categories and Products, Commerce Layer use "SKU" as the key concept. And when it all comes down to it - that is after all - what it's all about: Selling SKUs.
