[...] we have been using Medusa at Tekla and that has proven to be THE platform for ecommerce. A simple user interface with no mysterious hidden fees and just straight to the point of what every ecommerce manager needs

I’m using it for a project for a nonprofit right now - the team is great and I got a PR for a bug in a plug-in approved 3 hours later

I am using Medusa [...] and have had a great experience so far. Even without much experience developing with apis, Gatsby or React. I have tried a bunch of other headless commerce solutions and this is my favorite so far

I tried to overcome the design lock-in [of Shopify] by going headless with Gatsby and a Shopify private app but that felt really “hacky”. Using Medusa I’m able to use the software as intended.

Took a look at the code and I'm really impressed by the architecture and code quality. The UI is simple, clean and really easy to start using it.
