QUANTM7 Docs
Getting Started

Introduction

What QUANTM7 is and how these docs are organised.

What is QUANTM7?

QUANTM7 is a modular e-commerce platform. It gives merchants a visual editor to build their storefront, an admin dashboard to manage products and orders, and a set of tools to grow their business.

Stores run on Next.js with server-side rendering and on-demand revalidation. Pages are fast because they are pre-rendered and only rebuild when data changes.

What is Quill?

Quill is the template language built into QUANTM7. It lets developers write dynamic markup using a simple, familiar syntax. If you have used Liquid before, you already know how Quill works. The syntax is the same.

With Quill, you can:

  • Access store data like products, collections, and customer details
  • Loop through lists and apply conditions
  • Format output with filters (money, dates, strings, and more)
  • Build configurable sections with a settings schema
  • Create full themes from layout templates and reusable snippets

Quill templates render on the server. The output is static HTML that gets cached and served from the edge. There is no performance cost to the visitor.

Who are these docs for?

These docs cover two audiences:

  • Theme developers who want to build or customise QUANTM7 themes using Quill. You should be comfortable with HTML and CSS. Experience with a template language like Liquid, Handlebars, or Jinja is helpful but not required.
  • Headless developers who want to build custom storefronts with frameworks like Astro, Next.js, or Nuxt. The REST API gives you products, collections, blog, menus, cart, and checkout as JSON.

If you are a merchant who wants to use the visual editor instead, check the Platform docs for features like search.

How the docs are organised

  • Getting Started covers the basics. Start here if you are new.
  • Platform covers features like search, shipping, checkout, and domains.
  • Headless API is the REST API reference for building custom storefronts.
  • Quill is the full template language reference for theme development.
