Commerce Cloud Community Suite

The Commerce Cloud Community Suite is a selection of tools and libraries that you can use in your projects. We’ve chosen the tools based on their popularity and interoperability.

Unless you’re using another build tool, we also recommend using the Build Suite to deploy to environments in the primary instance group (staging, for example). As a best practice, don’t deploy to production systems by connecting your local workspace.

Only existing customers can access some of the following links. Visit Access the GitHub Repositories for information about how to get access to the Community Suite repositories.

This service worker plugin for Storefront Reference Architecture (SFRA) includes basic Progressive Web Apps (PWA) features and advanced caching capabilities.

Style Guide

The coding style guide applies a defined set of standards to the development process. It includes ESLint configuration files so that you can automate code checks.

SFRA Webpack Builder

Because webpack can be cumbersome to set up, especially in multicartridge projects for SFRA, use this plugin to bundle all your .js, .scss, and .jsx files out of the box.

Unit Testing / DW API Mock

The API mock provides the Commerce Cloud API as stubs and instructions on how to use this stub with Mocha JS to create and run unit tests for Commerce Cloud scripts. The tests run in a Node.js environment and can be embedded into build scripts or BitBucket pipelines.

Build Suite The Build Suite is a popular and well-tested JavaScript tool powered by Grunt. Use a set of scripts to automate your build processes and add additional value. The Build Suite offers numerous features such as Linting (server-side DS files), resource optimization, Storefront Toolkit Build information, test files, and two-factor authentication (2FA).

Salesforce Commerce Cloud CI

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud CI is a command-line interface (CLI) for interacting with Commerce Cloud instances from the command line or shell of various operating systems to facilitate Continuous Integration practices. It provides a JavaScript API that you can use to integrate with higher-level build tools, such as the Build Suite.

Dynamic Imaging Service (DIS) Wrapper

The Dynamic Imaging Service (DIS) Wrapper is helpful when you need multiple product image sizes but don’t have the backend system or processes to scale and replicate all the data to Commerce Cloud sandboxes. You can upload one image size, and any additional sizes that you need for your website are derived from the uploaded image.
