Create and manage affiliate websites in Wordpress with products & variants, automatic product updates, price comparisons, shops, details and more.

== Description ==

Affilicious is an Affiliate platform build on top of Wordpress. It allows affiliate marketers to easily maintain websites with support for
product & variants, automatic product updates, price comparisons, details, attributes and more. Everything for free.

= Does this affect me as an affiliate marketer? =
Yes, it does. We are affiliate marketers ourselves and we know that this business can be challenging and expensive at the beginning.
The competition gets bigger and bigger. Having a great foundation for your websites is just essential!

= Why should I care as a developer? =
Really, there are many reasons! You as a developer can benefit from extending Affilicious by building custom plugins and themes.
Additionally, the affiliate marketing community is growing fast and needs many individual plugins to manage their websites. I'm sure that there are
many customers who can't wait to use your plugins and/or themes!

Maybe you are asking how complex it can be to develop something with Affilicious. Well, the answer is: Easy compared to other similar solutions.
You have to know that Affilicious is developed thinking about third party developers and theme authors needs from the beginning.
Here is why developing with the Affilicious Plugin is really fun:

1. Build on top of the [Wordpress](https://wordpress.com) platform.
2. Real [Object-Oriented Programming](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming) with classes, interfaces and namespaces.
3. [Carbon Fields](https://carbonfields.net) and [Backbone](http://backbonejs.org) for building complex forms with ease.
4. [Pimple](http://pimple.sensiolabs.org) as a small Dependency Injection Container.
5. [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org) with [Gulp](http://gulpjs.com) for building assets.
6. [Sass](http://sass-lang.com) and [ECMAscript 6](https://babeljs.io/docs/learn-es2015/) Support.
7. Lots of build-in Wordpress [Hooks](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Hooks) and [Filters](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference).
8. [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) for easy vendor usage.
9. Automated tests with [PHPUnit](https://phpunit.de).
