CoCart: Headless WooCommerce API for Developers

CoCart gives you a developer-first REST API to decouple WooCommerce on the frontend. Build modern storefronts with full control over auth, sessions, cart and product flows.

Why developers choose CoCart

• ✅ Source of truth – Built on WooCommerce Data Stores and mirrors most WooCommerce hooks, ensuring broad compatibility from the start.
• 🔐 Session management – Lightweight, cookie‑less session keys stored in the database. Concurrency-safe.
• 🔑 Flexible authentication – Log in via email, username, or phone. No admin API keys required.
  • Optional JWT via official add‑on.
• 🌍 CORS control – First‑party CORS so cross‑domain frontends “just work”.
• 🛒 Real‑time cart management – Validate items/coupons, calculate totals in a single call.
• 🔎 Product search – Query by name, SKU, or ID — authenticated or not — with flexible filters.
• 🧩 Extendable Callbacks – Add your own logic with custom callbacks. No new endpoints needed.
• 🛠 Works with Woo Checkout – Load any cart session into WooCommerce’s native checkout.
• 💸 Name Your Price – Support donation-based pricing with built-in flexibility.
• 📦 Bulk Cart Requests – Combine multiple API calls into one for better performance.
