django-cart or Satchmo?

Question

I\'m looking to implement a very basic shopping cart. Satchmo seems to install a lot of applications and extra stuff that I don\'t need. I\'ve heard others me

Answer 1

Satchmo has more features than django-cart. If you are looking for simple and lightweight shopping cart application, try django-carton which is pretty similar to django-cart.

It helps with shopping cart operations such as adding and removing items. It's does not implement views, templates nor payment processing modules - you are free to build them your way. The cart lives in the session, not in the database. The cart items are arbitrary product objects so you can define your product model the way you want.
