Concepts

Feature Status

Key

  • green means this is working well enough to be deployed
  • yellow depends on which section is involved:
    • in the "shopping interface" section, it means I'm writing from scratch or significantly rewriting
    • in the "administrative interface" section, it means I had this written for the MediaWiki version of VbzCart and am now converting it to the standalone version.
  • bold means this needs to be working before the store can open

This doesn't currently show testing status; some items marked "working" may have been temporarily broken by work on other items.
