Release announcements, technical articles and eCommerce guides

Today we are excited to announce an important step forward for Vendure, which strengthens our status as an independent, sustainable open source company and project.

We're making our roadmaps public on GitHub, introducing three distinct plans: community, enterprise, and ecosystem. This reflects our commitment to building in public and fostering transparency.

Today sees the release of Vendure v2.3 as well as the next major version, v3.0

“If I use a GPL library in my website, I’ll need to open source all my code!” This is a very common misconception about the GPL open source license, even amongst seasoned developers - even including open source maintainers.

We are thrilled to share some exciting news about the future of Vendure! Over the years, our open-source platform has grown significantly, becoming a critical component of many digital infrastructures around the world. This growth is a testament to the trust and commitment of our vibrant community, and for that, we are immensely grateful.

Since the beginning of the Vendure project, I have been single-handedly running the Vendure community - answering questions, triaging issues, creating content - all in addition to the work on the platform itself. As Vendure has continued to grow, I have had to juggle community, core development, supporting our enterprise customers, plus building commercial products. It is a lot to deal with, and now I need your help.

In this episode, join Kevin Mattutat, CTO and Co-Founder, alongside our CEO and Co-Founder, David, as they explore the journey of creating a cutting-edge peer-to-peer marketplace using Vendure. Discover the challenges they faced, the breakthroughs they achieved, and the Vendure features that made it all possible.

Vendure v2.2 is out now and brings massive improvements to performance, developer experience & extensibility.

Our first ever in-person event took place this week and was a resounding success! Vendure developers from around the world made the journey to our home city of Vienna, Austria for a day of community, learning and new connections.

Vendure v2.1 is now available! This is a huge update that makes building rich commerce applications significantly simpler, faster, and more powerful.
