What it is
Bagisto is open-source software for running an online store or a marketplace where many sellers list products. It is built with Laravel and Vue.js, and the README describes it as a foundation you can customize for single-vendor, B2B, or multi-vendor commerce. It is aimed at businesses and developers who want to host and extend their own shop instead of using a hosted service.
- Run a single-vendor online store with the bundled Docker image
- Set up a multi-vendor marketplace where several sellers manage their own products
- Customize storefront and checkout using Laravel and Vue.js code
- Deploy to a cloud server or the AWS Marketplace AMI described in the README
Great for
- Developers building a custom online store on Laravel
- Businesses that want to self-host a store and own their data
- Teams planning a multi-vendor marketplace
- Agencies building B2B commerce sites for clients
Not ideal for
- Non-technical store owners who want a point-and-click hosted shop, since setup and customization require PHP and server knowledge
- Small one-page sites that only need a simple product listing, since this is a full commerce platform

- 3
Get the most out of it
- Pin a specific release tag such as 2.5.0 with your chosen web server and database for predictable upgrades
- Set DB_HOST to an external database server to skip the bundled database
- Follow the official devdocs installation guide for Composer-based installs
- Use the official tutorial videos and documentation for customization
Downloads
Strengths
- MIT license, so it can be used and modified freely
- Built on the widely used Laravel PHP framework
- Docker images are published for several web servers and databases
Trade-offs
- Requires PHP and Laravel knowledge to customize or maintain well
- The README's 10M+ SKU scale claim comes from the description and is not detailed in the README excerpt
- Cloud hosting and starter packs are paid offerings from the same company, so some promoted paths are commercial
