Launch Elements is a set of Custom Elements that make it easy to add dynamic features to a static website. You can think of them as a set of "universal plugins" that work regardless of hosting environment, platform, or technology. This repo contains the server side event handling code in Elixir and the front end TypeScript code for the custom elements.
The <launch-cart> element lets you easily add interactive ecommerce to a static html website. Currently it uses Stripe for the back end payment and product data. Other backends will be supported in the future.
The easiest way to use Launch Elements is the hosted environment at https://elements.launchscout.com. Currently we are in active beta. Use the registration form to sign up and we'll get you going.
Launch Elements is a Phoenix app. To start your server:
- Install dependencies with
mix deps.get - Create and migrate your database with
mix ecto.setup - Start Phoenix endpoint with
mix phx.serveror inside IEx withiex -S mix phx.server
Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.
