ABOUT THE PRESENTATION

In this session, we explored a new eCommerce engine for WordPress. Prodigy Commerce is a powerful alternative to WooCommerce for building stores with WordPress. This presentation focuses on how WordPress designers, developers, and agencies can create beautiful, fully functional stores for their clients with only ONE free, open-source plugin connected to a hosted platform that’s free at any scale. Prodigy represents the best of both worlds: the WordPress CMS and complete design flexibility coupled with a Shopify-like backend experience for store owners. After a handful of introductory slides, Brian dives right into a live demo of the platform.
