Scalable GraphQL-native headless commerce API for any stack
Saleor provides a high‑performance, API‑only GraphQL backend for composable e‑commerce, supporting multichannel, multilingual catalogs, flexible order and payment flows, and extensible apps without vendor lock‑in.
Saleor is a high‑performance, API‑only commerce engine built with Python and exposed exclusively via GraphQL. It targets development teams that need a technology‑agnostic, headless backend capable of powering custom storefronts, mobile apps, or any digital touchpoint.
The platform offers native multichannel support—multiple currencies, languages, and warehouses can be managed from a single catalog. Its rich product model, flexible order handling, promotion engine, and payment orchestration let businesses craft complex checkout experiences. Extensibility is achieved through apps, webhooks, and API schema extensions, allowing independent services to scale and evolve without impacting core stability.
Developers can run Saleor locally using Docker or follow the step‑by‑step guides for direct installation. For production, Saleor Cloud provides a managed environment, while the saleor‑platform repository simplifies running the API, dashboard, and storefront together. Comprehensive documentation and an active community support rapid onboarding and continuous improvement.
