FlxWoo

FlxWoo transforms your WooCommerce checkout into a modern, blazing-fast experience powered by Next.js, without breaking any existing functionality.

Instead of rebuilding checkout logic in JavaScript (and losing critical features), FlxWoo bridges WordPress/WooCommerce with a Next.js rendering engine. Your store keeps using:

• ✅ All payment gateways – Stripe, PayPal, Square, Klarna, local gateways, etc.
• ✅ Shipping methods & rates – All WooCommerce shipping plugins work
• ✅ Coupons & discounts – Smart coupons, dynamic pricing, etc.
• ✅ Tax calculations – WooCommerce Tax, TaxJar, Avalara, etc.
• ✅ Checkout extensions – Order bumps, upsells, custom fields, etc.

Perfect for agencies and developers who want a modern, custom-designed frontend without rewriting critical WooCommerce logic.

How It Works

1. Plugin installed → Detects WooCommerce cart/checkout/thank-you pages
2. Data collected → Aggregates cart, checkout config, and order data from WooCommerce
3. Sent to Next.js → Transmits data to your Next.js renderer via secure REST API
4. HTML returned → Next.js generates custom-designed HTML with Tailwind CSS
5. Graceful fallback → If Next.js unavailable, displays native WooCommerce templates

Why FlxWoo?

Most headless WooCommerce setups fail at checkout — payment gateways stop working, shipping calculations break, and coupons disappear. Developers end up rebuilding everything in JavaScript, which is expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone.

FlxWoo solves this by keeping WordPress/WooCommerce in control of business logic while Next.js handles only the presentation layer. You get a modern frontend without the risk.
