Oscar is an e-commerce framework for Django designed for building domain-driven sites. It is structured such that any part of the core functionality can be customised to suit the needs of your project. This allows a wide range of e-commerce requirements to be handled, from large-scale B2C sites to complex B2B sites rich in domain-specific business logic.

Oscar was written by David Winterbottom (@codeinthehole) and is developed and maintained by Tangent Labs, a London-based digital agency.
These are screenshots from the 'sandbox' example site that ships with Oscar. It sports a simple design built with Twitter's Bootstrap and provides a good starting point for rapidly building elegant e-commerce sites.
The sandbox site is also available to browse at http://latest.oscarcommerce.com. Dashboard users can be created using this gateway page.
The sandbox site can be set-up locally in 5 commands. Want to make changes? Check out the contributing guidelines.
