24 alternatives to Rapidez – Headless Magento with Laravel and InstantSearch

I've been working with Magento for years, but for side projects I used CodeIgniter. When Laravel was released, I switched and thought: It would be nice to create a Magento shop within the Laravel ecosystem! So, in 2020, I created a proof of concept: some Laravel models on top of the Magento database, with a frontend using Laravel Blade templates and some basic styling with Tailwind CSS. The result compared to Magento? Super fast product pages! Next up: category pages. These need filtering, sorting, etc. preferably without page refreshes.

    Hey HN, I'm a developer and long-time OSS contributor. Over the years, I've implemented tons of headless CMSs to give product and marketing teams more autonomy. But there's always been a gap with CMSs when it comes to user interfaces. I kept running into the same issues: poor developer experience, bad performance, no support for dynamic content, and needing vendors for AB testing or personalization, which just gets messy and expensive. Versioning? One change and things break or need manual fixes. Accessing your own data? Good luck unless you're ready to pay extra. So, I built a content API…
