Script of the Day: simpleCart(js)

simpleCart(js) is a JavaScript tool for powering shopping cart widgets. It uses PayPal, Amazon or Google Checkout to handle user payments.

It is not a shopping cart per se, because it still needs to be integrated with a CMS, e-commerce platform or product inventory system to work properly, but it takes care of all the logic needed for users to browse the store, select and buy their desired products.

Nevertheless, simpleCart(js) can easily be used to power simplistic one page stores or the selling of affiliate or digital product goods.

simpleCart(js) is unique in its own right because it does all this on the client's side, with no database needed to store selected products.

The widget is also very flexibile, allowing developers to use it with jQuery, MooTools or Prototype.

Besides this, simpleCart(js) can also handle other facets of a shopping cart system, like tax rates, shipping methods and even multiple currencies.

A simpleCart(js) demo can be viewed on its homepage. simpleCart(js) development is handled via GitHub.
