myCart

Is myCart actively maintained?

Development is ongoing. The repository recorded 323 commits over the same window, and the last three months alone account for 266 of them.

Activity is accelerating: the last quarter carried 1800% more commits than the one before it.

The most recent tagged release, v0.2.10, shipped within the last month — a current, installable version exists today.

Note that myCart depends on a third-party service to work fully. It is self-hosted, but not self-contained: if that external service changes its terms or disappears, your instance is affected.

myCart ranks #18 of 25 tracked e-commerce projects. Several better-maintained options exist in the same category — they are listed below.

What myCart actually does

myCart is an e-commerce application packaged into a single file, designed to handle online transactions. It provides functionality for processing payments via traditional credit cards and cryptocurrencies.

Best fit: This tool is a good fit if you need to quickly embed or deploy a lightweight shopping cart without managing a complex multi-service architecture.

Worth knowing: The single-file design and modest community adoption suggest it may lack advanced inventory management, plugin ecosystems, or extensive documentation compared to established e-commerce platforms.

Deployment notes

Because it runs as a containerised Go application, you will typically need to configure a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination and ensure persistent storage is attached if transaction data or state needs to be retained.
