WooCommerce and Shopify are both popular eCommerce platforms. Here's how they compare technically.
WooCommerce
WordPress plugin. Self-hosted, open source. Full control over code and data. Requires hosting, security, and updates. Best for teams with WordPress skills and need for deep customisation.
Shopify
SaaS platform. Hosted, managed. Less control, less ops. Themes and apps extend. Best for speed to market and teams without dev resources.
Choosing
Choose Shopify for simplicity and speed. Choose WooCommerce for control and cost at scale. Consider BigCommerce, Magento, or headless for complex needs.
