Sylius/Sylius
Sylius
Sylius is a PHP-based digital commerce framework built on Symfony for managing product catalogs, orders, and customer transactions. It functions as an API-first headless commerce engine that delivers store data via REST to decoupled frontend interfaces and external systems.
The platform includes a specialized B2B eCommerce framework with tools for managing wholesale operations and corporate pricing. It also acts as a multi-store commerce manager, allowing the coordination of product inventory and sales across multiple digital storefronts from a single installation.
The system covers broader commerce operations including order and return lifecycle processing, customer loyalty programming to track shopper behavior, and multi-store inventory synchronization. Its architecture utilizes a bundle-based modular extension system and a state-machine order workflow to manage transaction transitions.
