WooCommerce technical guides

WooCommerce data, product types, plugins and the REST API — how your existing store maps onto a native app.

These posts are for the person who looks after the store itself. They explain how a mobile app talks to WooCommerce through the REST API, how the catalogue stays in sync, and how products with variations, shipping rules and taxes carry over into an app.

You will also find notes on plugins: which kinds usually work in an app as they are, which need extra care, and how to test them on a staging site before you go live. Read them before you connect a busy store, because a few settings on the WooCommerce side decide how smooth the app feels for shoppers.
