Features

Built openly, badged honestly.

Below is the full litecommerce feature map. Anything in the “Shipped today” column runs on production staging right now. Anything in the “On the roadmap” column carries a Coming soon tag — it's planned, not promised.

Shipped today

What you can do this afternoon.

Every item here is live in the merchant admin and the public REST API, with audit history where it matters. See the changelog for ship dates.

Multi-tenant foundations

  • Supabase Auth for merchant staff with email/password and session handling
  • Owner/Admin/Staff base roles with permission presets and groups for delegated writes
  • Tenant memberships and org switching for staff who work across brands
  • API guards enforce tenant scoping on every public, merchant, and platform route

Tenant-safe API surfaces

  • Four route conventions: /public, /merchant, /platform, /webhooks
  • Public catalog reads with tenant context — no privileged credentials required
  • Authenticated merchant write endpoints with role checks and request validation
  • Consistent error envelope across every route, ready for OpenAPI generation

Catalog CRUD

  • Products and variants with create, edit, archive, and restore
  • Brand, vendor, and product family fields
  • Compare-at pricing on items and variants for sale presentation
  • Soft-delete + restore returns archived items to DRAFT for explicit re-publish

Product information management

Collections + CMS pages

  • Collection create, edit, archive, restore, and item assignment/reorder
  • CMS page create, edit, archive, restore with preview-friendly status handling
  • Public APIs return updated collections and pages for tenant storefronts

Inventory + stock lifecycle

  • On-hand, reserved, and available stock tracked per variant
  • Auto-reserve on order create, release on cancel, decrement on fulfillment
  • Low-stock admin alerts and out-of-stock status exposed via API

Returns / RMA

  • Customer return request flow with a merchant approval state machine

  • Restock of resellable items on receipt
  • Customer notifications on return lifecycle events via Resend

Abandoned cart recovery

Catalog media

  • Image create, update, delete, and reorder APIs
  • Soft-delete first, background cleanup for orphaned assets

Audit log

  • Append-only audit records persisted per tenant
  • Captures admin writes, auth events, API-key changes, and platform support access
  • Merchant-visible audit viewer in admin
  • Records include actor, tenant, action, target, timestamp, and metadata

Tenant settings + onboarding

Self-serve signup

  • Public signup flow with abuse filtering and operator approval queue
  • Automated tenant provisioning on approval
  • Per-plan auto-approve gating (Free + Pro) with Edge Config flags
  • Free-tier plan model with platform-admin visibility

Reference storefronts

  • Two production storefronts running on the live API: Idaho Pro Gear and EKGIS Naturals
  • Proves portability — different stacks, different brands, same backend
  • Useful as concrete integration examples for BYO frontend builds
