Help us grow this project to be the best it can be!
VueFront is a VueJS powered CMS agnostic SPA & PWA frontend for your old-fashioned Blog and E-commerce site.
WordPress is open source software you can use to create a beautiful website, blog, or app.
CMS Connect App - adds the connection between the WordPress CMS and VueFront WebApp via a GraphQL API.
Demo
What does it do?
This is a wordpress plugin that connects the wordpress CMS with the VueFront WebApp via a GraphQL API. When installed, you will be provided with a CMS Connect URL that you will add to your VueFront WebApp .env file.
Wordpress Store (WooCommerce)
Since Wordpress does not have a built-in Store, we use the Free WooCommerce to add store support. If woocommerce is not avalible, VueFront will ignore it.
How to install?
Php version required >= 5.5, <= 7.2 (this limitation will be removed in the future)
Quick Install
- The quickest way to install is via WordPress Plugin Directory or manually Download the compiled plugin and upload it through the 'Plugins > Add New' menu in WordPress
