I have been toying around with an E-commerce Component for Joomla for a while now. I have used Virtuemart for one site, and that is the last time I will be using that component. It is too bulky, yes it is free, and comes with a huge options library, but what about the smaller stores? Do you honestly think that a regular user could use Virtuemart with ease? I want to put something out there (Commercial or free, undecided) that will be easy to use and straight to the point. That is what I try to do with all the extensions I have made so far. I think that is where everything is going, I want to help someone that is a regular user on the internet to be able to download my component, and have a store set up within 30 minutes. I have a lot of code for the E-commerce already created, but what about Joomla 1.7 and 2.5? I honestly think people jumped the gun with creating live websites with Joomla 1.7. It is great, but no where near the stable version Joomla 1.5.25. I still think it will be a good year before 2.5 is where Joomla 1.5.25 is.
