Melbis Shop
Melbis Shop is a commercial platform for online stores with CRM/ERP
elements, designed for large catalogs and high loads.
The platform consists of two halves running on a unified business
logic:
- Native Windows client — an employee workstation and
a development environment at the same time. Managers handle products,
prices, orders, and customers in bulk — hundreds of suppliers, hundreds
of thousands of products, thousands of attributes — at the speed of a
desktop application, not a web interface. Granular permissions separate
access between content managers, logistics staff, and sales
personnel.
- PHP engine — serves the storefront. Between batch
work sessions, data changes rarely, so the storefront operates in an
almost read-only mode with multi-level caching — resulting in fast
response times even under peak traffic.
Order calculation and checkout are performed by the same code both in
the application and on the website — discrepancies between the
storefront and back office are excluded by design.
Key Features
- Batch data processing and deferred loading — minimal server
load.
- Built-in image editor and HTML editor powered by the Chromium
engine.
- Web modules: client extension and hybrid store management directly
within its windows.
- Functional filters, query templates, and direct SQL for data
retrieval.
- Multilingual support: manual and automatic translation of any store
elements.
- Analytics and reports powered by FastReport.
- Development environment: code editor with autocomplete, SQL
debugger, database structure reference, AI agents. The Melbis PHP
controller is used by default; optionally, the storefront can be built
on Laravel.
- A ready-made demo store built on Bootstrap 4 for a quick start.
